One Account of Death

'I found myself free from my body. It was such a strange new feeling. I was standing close to the bedside on which my body was lying; I saw everything in the room just as before I closed my eyes.'

Why?

Demanded of another, 'why?' engenders further oppression and weakness; Conversely, 'why?' asked of oneself, allows penetration to the deepest recesses of unresolved issues. Can not a tool be harmful if not handled as it was intended? A sense of loss will always accompany a desire to abscond from... Sign in to see full entry.
