A young mother of two young children survives for five days trapped inside of her truck after it skids off the road and plunges into a ravine. With injuries to her skull, leg, and arm, and suffering from hypothermia and dehydration, she says she clung to life for her two children.
So... here are my questions and a possible theory:
- Does the survival instinct become stronger when the focus is on someone else's life rather than our own?
- Are we wired to instinctively put more importance on saving/protecting another life outside of ourselves?
- By focusing on another life, does it in turn make our own lives thrive?
Think about it... I would love to hear your thoughts.
