You've probably heard about them. Everybody who has had a near-death experience tells the same story: they went throught a tunnel, or something like it, and at the end of the tunnel there was a big light. Some of them have seen people who were 'dead' on earth. They all say that they felt great in that place, wherever it was, and that they didn't want to go back. Some people call it a 'different reality', not the different reality, but just another reality. What are your thoughts about this? Do you know someone who had a near-death experience, or have you even had one yourself? ~*Esther*~

one of my teachers has died once or twice (lol, kinda funny, and she thinks so too). she's had an "out-of-body" experience. she died, and she was actually watching the doctors working on her from an upper corner of the room. then they brought her back and she was back in the body. kinda freaky.

^ Yeah, I heard that too. The medical explanation is a lack of oxygen. That would create a good feeling or something... I think that's just one of those cases where doctor's don't have an explanation and feel the need to come up with something. There was also this blind man who had one of these experiences, and he actually *saw* how he was lying in the hospital and having a surgery. He could exactly describe what everything looked like. I don't call that a lack of oxygen... hehe... ~*Esther*~

^^^That's so freaky! Well, the whole "light at the end of the tunnel" thing is actually a scientific thing...when you're about to die, your brain starts to like shut down (or something similar) and it emits a signal that makes you think you're seeing a very bright light...and something else causes it to look like a tunnel. Sorry I can't explain better, but I just don't remember. Love, ~The Kitten~

In October I was electricuted and I didnt see any tunnel or special bright light (only the light from the fire which my hand was in) I was praying while it was all happening and It was like I could see myself and hear myself and what was going on and thats all I remember. It was scary though...and I went into shock so thats prolly why...

I haven't had one (thank you God), but I think there is more to it than just "medical" reasons. One lady I was watching on TV had one, except hers wasn't of "Heaven" or a "bright light". Hers, she said, was literally Hell. There were people on sticks, and lava, volcanoes, etc. If it was medical, most, if not all, would see the same, no? Maybe hers was some sort of warning? I dunno. I just think that there's more to it than what the doctors generally give it credit for.

^^ Why be afraid of something that comes to us all at one point or another? At least that's the thinking I have taken. Why fight what you can't change and why waste your life worrying over something that will eventually happen? Just live life as you please and be good to people. That's all you can do. It may be easier for me because I believe in reincarnation, because although I will have no recollection of this life in my next, I will be living and learning again. "Death is but the next journey to the well organized mind." I think that is the exact quote, courtesy of Albus Dumbledore of Harry Potter fame. Sorry, I went a bit off topic, but I thought it should be addressed.
