After David Ditchfield was dragged under a moving train, the way he looked at death changed. Before his accident he didn’t consider the afterlife, but now Ditchfield says he knows there is nothing to fear after we die. He tells Leah what he saw the day he almost died.
There was nothing to fear before I was born either.

ReplyDeleteSo you want Union?
Union is not something found on the ground
or purchased at the marketplace.
Union comes only at the cost of life.
Otherwise, everyone and his brother
would have this union. —Rumi
