Popular comedian, Kevin Hart has talked about what his recent accident has made him realize about his life.
Hart was involved in an accident in July while driving his Plymouth Barracuda which he bought to mark his 40th birthday.
According to the comedian, it was a reality check that he has to stop living the fast life.
His words, “Basically, what you realize is that you’re’ not in control. No matter how much you think you’re’ in control, you’re not in control and at the end of the day, it can all be over.
“When God talks, you gotta listen. I swear life is funny because some of the craziest things that happen to you end up being the thing that you needed most.”
“In this case, I honestly feel like God basically told me to sit down. When you’re moving too fast and you are doing too much sometimes, you can’t see the things you’re meant to see.
“But after my accident, I see things differently. I see life from a whole new perspective. My appreciation for life is through the roof. I’m thankful for my family, my friends. I’m thankful for the people that simply ride with me and have been with me ’cause you stood by me.
“My fans, thankful for all your love and support. Don’t take today for granted, ’cause tomorrow’s not promised. More importantly, I’m thankful for God, thankful for life.”
We are happy for his life.
