Injuries Are Like Giant Bombs

Years later, Sharon would tell me that he felt he shared in the blame for what happened.  I was shocked to hear this.  Sharon had nothing to do with the accident.  But the way he saw it, he was the captain and I was a freshman on the team.  He should have looked after me better at the bar and made sure I got home safely.  That's when I realized that injuries are like giant bombs.  I happened to be at ground zero for this explosion, but I wasn't the only one who felt the blast and caught some shrapnel.  It hurt everyone in the surrounding areas in varying degrees, depending on their proximity.
