The day Agnetha (of ABBA) saved my life

[Jim Colyer]

I went to Stockholm in 1994. I wanted to hang out, to have an experience with the Swedes after having written a book about ABBA. While in Stockholm, I took a cruise across the Baltic Sea to Finland. We sailed through the Swedish Archipelago. Our ship was like a floating hotel. I stood on the top deck as we left Stockholm.

I was the last person to come down from the top. We were in the archipelago and our speed was up. It was windy. I had been warned about passengers falling off the ship and drowning. Suddenly, I was confused and disoriented. I could not find the stairs leading to the deck below. Out of nowhere I heard Agnetha's voice. She was singing “The Day Before You Came.” It was not my imagination. The sound was coming from the ship's speakers. Hearing Agnetha composed me. I found the stairs and got safely below. My guardian angel had come to my rescue.

Cool story! And yes I agree we have guardian angels.
