Ok I give up!!!!!!!!!
I'm going to stop driving all together and hide in my garage. While waiting to pick up my youngest at the bus stop this afternoon at 3:45pm, a very nasty line of thunderstorms blew through, with monster rains and wind.......then the lightening started. A tree about 30 feet to my left on the driver side was struck by lightening. Sparks and ash cinders landed on the car but no damage was sustained. It was crazy how it felt to be that close to lightening. The grandmother in the car next to me I thought had a heart attack as she was freaking out. WTF??????? What is next? Bats, deer, crazy truck accidents and now lightening? God is talking to me.

I think I do! WTF???? It isn't like I am going out of my way to find trouble. What are the odds? I come home from the grovery store and have a colony of bats fly across my path and hit a bunch of them. On another day coming home from getting bagels a deer jumps right over my hood. Then I am running another errand to get fresh pastries for my wife and the truck incident happens. Now today I am stationary and lightening strikes a tree near me? What the hell am I doing wrong here? I'm getting on a plane again in a few days and I am starting to worry that I shouldn't. I'm beginning to think I do have a dark cloud over me. I don't get it.

If you look up and choose to see a dark cloud, you will. Or you can choose to see the clear sky all around the dark cloud.
Once could say you are a very lucky man who:
1) Survived the bat encounter
2) Was missed by a dear leaping in front of the car
3) Saw the awesome power of a lightning strike unhurt and undamaged
Go on holiday with a focus on the positive and you are guaranteed a pleasurable journey.
The best fortune cookie message I ever read was: "Every fortune cookie has both good and bad news. Either you can choose which fortune to accept or you can just eat the damn cookie".

Glass half empty or half full I know. I am a positive minded person as a baseline and treat life struggles with a positive spin where possible, but these experiences are stressing that perspective. Yes I could interpret my experiences as luck rather than doom, but at some point we all want to come inside out of the rain.

Since it's a Japanese car made in Japan, you need a Shinto blessing!

You have to have a huge ego to believe in god and think he cares about you, watches you, and thinks about you all the time.
Religious ppl lol.

Wear same undies for a year without ever changing. It is lucky.

As long as you can let me detail your car first! If you are ever heading down my way just let me know.

We need an old priest and a young priest...the power of Christ compels you...Be gone!!!
Just kidding. I'll echo Tampa's words - you've been through a lot of crap and come out of it smelling like a rose.

it's only when you care about something and try and protect it that weird stuff happens (it being the car). next thing you know you become paranoid about the car, driving or parking it anywhere.
yeah...i know that feeling...though your experiences i'd have to say are just straight nuts.
