Member-only story
I almost died
But
I am here to write about it
What a blessing
It was the first time
I accepted death
What a blessing
It was not my time
He told me
Someone else was not so lucky
I did not press it
My mindset has shifted
Since the passing of
So many loved ones
They say that
Every day is not promised
But
It is a gift and a blessing
Whenever it comes
Life revealed to me that
Every second is not promised
Because you can be
Good for one second
And gone
The next second
Check on your loved ones
Before they are long gone
Acceptance has kept me
Grounded
My near-death experience
Showed me just how much
