I think that the "loss of innocence" is when you realize that you aren't a kid any more. This could happen in any way, an experience, an event, or just when you talk to people. Any kind of these could be very dramatic or very simple. One loss of innocence that i know is my own. When my dad and I was on my way to the gym one day, we just got to a car accident right after it accrued. We were sitting there in the car because there was no where to go. The sight of the accident was horrific, because this was nothing like a fender bender, it was a t-bone hit. We could just see the bodies of the two people in the car to the left laying lifeless in the vehicle. I think the weirdest thing about it is that when we went to start the car before we left, we had a flat tire for no reason. After i realized every thing, all of the questions popped into my head; Could that have been us? Were we late for a reason? Was God watching out for us? I think that this changed me because i realized that it could have been us. I have now spent more time with my family and friends then ever.
