Experience Description

The day before I made love to a woman in Colorado, who called herself a witch. I was a fast-living free spirited soul, and have studied TAOISM and some of the mystic energies. The woman's body, while making love, gave out a huge surge of energy, which I felt come into me. She pleaded with me not to go back to Chicago. The next day I arrived back in Chicago, and picked up my friend. His girlfriend had a bad dream of a black cat and she pleaded with us not to go on my motorcycle. We pulled out, there was a black cat looking at us, and it crossed out path. This happened three more times.

Then hours later 'boom', we were hit head-on by an intoxicated driver with no insurance. He turned into us traveling 50 mph as we were also traveling 50+ mph. My friend was thrown off the back. I stayed on the bike. Both of my legs got crushed until both femurs broke, as the motorcycle went down. I went up over the hood, into windshield then rolled in the gravel along the side of the road. I crawled to find my friend, worried he was dead, and kept holding on to him.

One hospital was within a mile and my friend went there. He ended up living in body cast for 6 or 7 months. I, on other hand, was shipped-off to a trauma center.

The next day, I knew it was 'time,' having dreamt of this day since I was a little boy. I don't know why I lived so wildly, even though I had an educated family. As nurses and doctors franticly ran around me, I left my body, said good-bye, and left the hospital. There was a white light. But like a strong magnet, I was pulled up to the light as it got bigger. Then stars and lights surrounded me. The sounds, smells, and the sights where amazing, like trying to explain what a banana tastes like to someone who had never eaten one.

I was knocking on the gates of heaven, only I could not get in. A spirit told me that it was not my time because I had to do beautiful things and help mankind and nature. I argued with that energy and told him/her/it that my body was mangled. How am I going to do anything with such a damaged body? I was told how, but not in English, nor Hungarian or German, but by thoughts projected into my spirit. That is when I knew there was more to me. I had a communication device that I did not need to speak in order to use it. I felt like Ralphy in ‘Christmas story’ when he told Santa that he wanted a BB gun as he's pushed by Santa's foot and goes sliding down the slide.

I felt, and still feel, like that little boy. All my evil ways died. I became different, as if my soul was in a white coat! Then reality set back in as I floated above the hospital. I watched nurses and doctors running around me, the electric crash cart came out and then I saw my body shake up and down.

Next, my eyes opened looking up and I could feel great pain. At the time, I couldn't explain why I could draw the scene later from a bird's eye view. For several years, I tried hiding from this truth because people looked at me as if I was crazy if I mentioned it. I drank and did drugs while trying to live a better life. One day, I realized that I was holding myself back. I have fallen into everyone's way of living and how I should be. This was the catalyst of my 180 degree turn and now I help man, birds, and even earthworms. I speak to people who lost loved ones, tell them my story, how their loved ones have just passed over, and are not dead like they think. TAOISM writes about this as does Hindu and even the Bible of life after. The older I get the stronger the energy inside of me gets. I can write more and more and more as it was the greatest gift I ever received.
