Oobe

Listen to poem:
It's an awesome  feeling of inner peace and happiness
A euphoric  feeling,such joy I feel inside
Life's turned around now,things will never be the same
What's lost is found now,I'm glad I almost died

Tell me what happened to you?
ONE DAY I HAD A HEART ATTACK.
Were you dead now,turning blue?
YES I WAS BUT THEY BROUGHT ME BACK.
What happened while you were dead?
I LEFT MY BODY AND FLOATED FREE.
Were you lying on a bed?
YES,I WAS GAZING DOWN ON ME.
Keep on talking tell me more.
I SAW BEINGS WHO LOOKED WISE
Please continue I implore
MY LIFE FLASHED BEFORE MY EYES.
What question did they ask you?
TELL US WHAT YOU'VE LEARNED FROM LIVING.
Your reply,your point of view?
I'VE BEEN TAKING WITHOUT GIVING.
What else did the beings say?
IMAGINATION IS THE KEY.
Clarify now please explain?
THOUGHTS BECOME YOUR REALITY.
What more happened over there?
TOUCHED BY THE ANGELS HIGH ABOVE.
Must have felt beyond compare.
BATHING IN THE LIGHT OF TOTAL LOVE.
Did the beings say goodbye?
YES,THEY SAID I MUST RETURN
Did they give a reason why?
I STILL HAD ALOT TO LEARN
So,what do you think of dying?
DON'T BE AFRAID NOW,DO NOT FEAR IT
Tell the truth now,don't be lying
THE BODY DIES BUT NOT THE SPIRIT.
THE BODY DIES BUT NOT THE SPIRIT

Well,it's an awesome feeling of inner peace and happiness.
A euphoric feeling,such joy I feel inside! I'm not afraid to die!

This is a gorgeously written matter-of-fact poem about what I also think happens during death. I have to guess that this is an experience you have had yourself. I remember thinking I was going to die for sure once as my car crashed into an embankment. I said "God, I've had a great life!" When I opened my eyes I was disappointed I was alive, and I had never wanted to die. So I knew it meant whatever is after this is much better as my soul knew.
