Near Death Experience

The End I am dead. I travel towards a blue ball of LIGHT. It calls me, communicates. Whether we are billions, trillions or even just millions. we are eternal, we are one. The time we spend on Earth is infinitesimal. Hate has no place inside the light. Give people the benefit of the doubt there is nothing to be gained or lost you just must. Power is fleeting and it too means nothing. I am speaking these word out loud but my understanding is greater than that a lot greater. All life is vital; all of it travels back and forth. Cleanse your spirit your mind and heart, forgive everyone. Your purpose is not what it seems. Do not be afraid of those who hate you. Fear no one. Fear is a wasted emotion that only drains energy. When you speak of peace the confused will attack. Stay kind, stay pure. There is nothing to win there is nothing to lose you just must. Look deep into others eyes there you will see who you are. Cleanse yourself there is a light, a life that awaits us all, what awaits us is greater than any words or ideas. In our simple form we cannot conceive the after light. Light not dark is our destiny brighter than you've ever seen. Live by the light, it will set you free. It is the peaceful who are brave. Just rid yourself of hate believe in peace, walk lightly and all will be clear! We are and will always be one. ........never ever give up on anyone......... on................any............one ........suddenly........ I am back....... ........I died but I am back........ ........I know because all my angst returns. All my family is around me. There are tubes down my throat wires everywhere. I am blessed my family with me tears and smiles a love that blankets me. I smile. The Beginning. 31~10~2014 Sponsor: Anthony Slausen Contest Name: Near Death or Near Life Experience
