A person had a very important business meeting to catch. He took a taxi to catch his flight. As he was going ahead and and going through the tickets and the security and everything like that, he realized that he's too late. By the time he was able to get to the gate, the the gate was already closed. They didn't let him on the flight and it was a real bummer for him. It was a big loss. He called a good pal of his to go ahead and pick him up. Out of complete and utter disappointment, he realized that uh this was a big loss for him. But what could he do? He missed the flight. His good friend came to pick him up about an hour later. And uh as they were driving back, he told him about the meeting. I don't know. I have to go ahead and book another ticket, but it's going to be too late. It's a real unfortunate occurrence that occurred to me. His friend, the driver, told him, "Which flight were you on by the way?" Just parathetically kind of asking him. And he mentioned to them the flight, I was on a United flight, flight 407. He told him, "No way. On the way here, while I was driving here, you won't believe what happened." I was listening on the radio and they said on takeoff, while that flight was taking off, you wouldn't believe it. There was some complications with the wheels, etc. I don't know exactly what happened. It had a tragic accident. It it skid it skidded on the runway and it caused a fire and an eruption. They still don't know how many casualties there are, but there are tremendous amount of casualties and they still don't know how many people are dead. It's crazy. I don't believe it. You actually missed the flight. The person was like, I don't believe it. He was an absolute shock. I'm making a shul I'm going to be donating money. Like we say in all the time, the great appreciation to know that you give me everything. I'm so satisfied with everything you've given me. This is the most fantastic day of my life business. Who cares about it? I saved my life. I'm still around to be able to praise about it. I'm going to go ahead and tell everyone the incredible miracle. His friend turned to him immediately and he said, "I have to be honest with you. That was a big bluff. I lied. It's not true. I didn't have there was nothing on the radio. The flight took off and everybody's healthy and fine. But why do you have to kill 250 people before you start realizing that said that Hashem said this is not your flight? This is not for you to be here. God decided that this is not the flight you're supposed to be on. And it doesn't mean that people have to die in order for you to come out without without musko.
