While dead, I was in the presence of the Supreme Being. There was no pain. Although I was aware of my accident, I had no speech. It was more of a thought transfer or telepathy. There was no darkness, only light. There was had no sense of time; I felt like I was out for 10 minutes. When I woke from the coma, I was told I was out for 5 days! I was in a different consciousness that was a more aware, higher state of being. I did not want to come back, even though I knew I had loved ones on earth including a child. Where I was, was so wonderful that it trumped all experiences on earth. In particular, there was the feeling of being loved without worry or sadness. I've been in and out of prisons and jail was my whole life since my youth. These punishments did nothing for my addictions but perhaps made them worse. I had a little time of being sober by going to meetings but the underlying urge was still there. I ultimately would wind up at the crack house again. This experience has taken the urge from me. Our time here is so short and I feel like I was sent back to tell others the TRUTH. We do not simply go into a grave after the body dies and that's all. Rather, that is a beginning to really living.
