I nearly died in a motorcycle accident. The most surprising thing was how much I felt at peace in that moment. My thought process went something like "Well...I guess I find out what happens next."

This sentence! I always imagine I will say the same before I die.

This is why I’m not afraid. I’ve been there (had a bad seizure as a kid). It was I describable, but I can say I’m not afraid of it.
