When it was my fault: owning up and making it right, sentence 16

A near miss is when something bad almost happens; the brain keeps replaying "what could have happened" as a warning to be careful, not as a punishment.

Who acts: near miss, something, brain · What happens: be, happen, keep, replay · Speech: someone speaks here
