Every single day that we are alive is a day that we are in danger, most of the time we think that were in the most danger when we leave our homes and sometimes even then, we aren't safe.

Sometimes we are unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time and fall victim to a freak accident and other times there are horrible people doing malicious things.
