Writing has become more important as I live with cancer. It's a therapy, it's an escape, and it's a way to do something lasting that hopefully leaves an impression.

If People Can Die And Come Back, Often Hours Later, Then Death Is No Longer The Absolute Ending We Once Believed.
I first read about the strange phenomenon during the Ebola crisis in Africa. World Health Care team members were carrying bodies in body bags away to the fires. Suddenly, and without explanation, one of them started kicking around. The dead had risen...from the grave?

"Here's Johnny"
The last thing Jonathan remembered before regaining consciousness was the pilot yelling into the radio. Jonathan instinctively grabbed his bag and as they reached an altitude that looked doable, he jumped from the side of the Blackhawk Helicopter, missing the shallow water and ending up in the rapids. He nearly drowned several times, clutching his gear bag as his body was bounced off the rocky bedrock that lined the river. Finally, the waters calmed, after several minutes of desperation and he floated into a shallower area, able to grasp onto some rocks to pull himself to shore. He lay there for several minutes, sore, soaked, and disorientated before nearly passing out from the shock of it all. The simplest of missions had nearly brought about his demise before they even touched down on the ground.

To start with, life should be filled with the things that make us proud. So, why is it that we all have so much of the same thing--regret? Regret should be a pseudonym for lessons. It is the word most used when we get to that daunting point of self-introspection. What I've learned over time, thanks to those regrets, has made me into who I am today.
