-Me, "cleaning up" lightheartedly the empty juice box, by throwing it over my husbands head into the trash bin. Him, startled: "Hey... this was really close! Only a centimeter or two, and you would have hit me!" I gave him a very sloppily quoted Abe-line as an answer (like, what Abe said to Jerry and Esther, when they missed "to get creamed by a train only by a very small distance", as Esther had put it).
"Don't fear death. It's nice there, where Abe are! And, if it missed you by an inch or by a mile, which difference does it make? It missed you."
My man stared at me and said: "This is again SO typical for dead people to say!!!"
It makes me laugh imagining this scene "if it missed you by an inch or by a mile, which difference does it make? It missed you."
That's such a good one! A good reminder not to dwell on "almost bad things" if they didn't happen
