      One day we're all going to die. Everyone needs to repent (stop sinning) and have a personal relationship with God. ask God to forgive u for ur sins. "good" ppl dnt go to heaven. we're all sinners on our way to hell if u dont ask God to forgive u, turn away from ur sins and place ur trust and faith in Jesus. its time to start serving God and stop serving the devil. money is of the devil. Do u kno where ull go after u die? heaven or hell. its ur choice. theres only 1 way to heaven and thats through Jesus Christ. Jesus took the punishment for u on the cross so that u wont have to go to hell for ur own sins. read ur bible starting in the new testament in the book of John. hell is real. only a few ppl make it to heaven. mostly everyone goes to hell. do u kno Jesus personally? does Jesus kno u? or will he tell u i never knew u, depart from me u evil doer into everlasting fire! please turn to Jesus now that there is time. tomorrow could be ur last day on earth. CHOOSE JESUS. HES THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN. Jesus is God in the FLESH. only ppl with the Holy Spirit inside of them and whose sins are washed by the BLOOD OF JESUS can enter heaven. all others wont make it to heaven. theyll be cast into the lake of fire

Why would the foreigners go on strike? They won’t because they are making more in a month than they could make in 1.5 to 2 years in their home country. They are some of the most unskilled dangerous drivers on the road. Courtesy for other drivers trucks and 4-wheelers is almost nonexistent.

    My son is a trucker and I know if he had been there, he would have done the same. His truck was hit last January by a snow plow and the police shut off the highway while he was still there. Some sort of mix up in communication. No one from his company or anyone from our family could come and help. His phone was almost out of juice, he was cold...in farm country where most people of color are not seen much, so he was a little scared. I got on face book and many people began praying for him. I only mentioned the people of color thing to make a point. Out of "nowhere" came a string of farmers, their wives and familes with a big contraption they used to get their own vehicles out of snowy ditches, the women brought hot drinks, etc and warm scarves, etc. I have always warned my children not to worry about someone's looks differently or does not have your same issues. Instead, believe in the content of a moral heart and depend on the theory that deep down, we have the common denominator of goodness.

      Yes but also treatment. Depression is a complex mental health issue, it can be that you're genetically predisposed, it can be that you've too much or too little of certain brain chemicals that is causing faulty mood regulation, it can be situational... it really depends and it needs properly diagnosed and treated.
      Sometimes an ear isn't enough, sometimes therapy, meds and changes in lifestyle are required.
      I do hope this poor man got the help he so desperately needed because being listened to may have discouraged him to go through with it that one time but without the proper treatment chances are this won't be his only attempt.
      Statistically, those who attempted to commit suicide once are 3 times more likely to attempt it again within a year of the first attempt and 38 times more likely to eventually succeed at taking their own lives. It's a scary and heartbreaking statistic.

      lento7421 Exactly right. Who would you rather pull up behind you if you're stranded on a deserted road --- a car with 2 or 3 guy or a truck driver? Truckers help everybody. Car drivers often get mad that trucks accelerate slower and climb hills slower. That's physics, not any desire to inconvenience anybody.

My hat is off to the drivers in the video and all those who keep this great country moving.

    • @tessarix
      @tessarix 6 років тому +3

      I agree 100%. Truckers do heroic things every day in this country and you don't hear about most of them because the trucker doesn't need the kudos. Years ago when I was a young and stupid young woman, I had a tire blowout in an area where there was virtually nothing but road and tumbleweeds. I stuck out my thumb to get a ride and a big rig trucker pulled over. As I was climbing into the cab, I stupidly put my hand on the exhaust pipe by the door that was sizzling hot. It burned my entire hand. The trucker, seeing my injury, not only took me to the next nearest town, but delivered me to the ER at the closest local hospital. The burns were third degree and terribly painful for a long, long time, but my hero trucker had gotten me to the hospital ER in record time. He never asked me for anything. I thanked him and he drove off to wherever he was going to. That is the American way, regardless of what other countries say about us. There are heroic people everywhere here and that will never change.

Claimed to lonely and gone too long from me and that it was better for both of us. I stayed faithful. Can't say she did. And with a disgusting hooker. To be fair, the hooker was before I was ever in the picture, but still, nothing said about it until we're planning our wedding. Grossed me out beyond words, so truck drivers aren't high on my list of nice people. Also explains why her diseased ass is an ex. I'm happily married to a better, incredible, beautiful woman.
