EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION

As I fell and my friend fell on me I blacked out... At this time I looked down on myself lying there with my friends around me. I could here what they were saying and what was going on. I heard the TV and the commercials an show I was watching. I felt myself kinda floating above them near the ceiling and I could see down the hallway and was able to see my friends who were in the hallway an see what they were doing.

I don't believe I was dead but I could hear my friends discussing heir worries that I was unconscious and they were slapping my face. one friend went to get water to splash on me. We were young and they didn't know what to do to revive me. As soon as I saw them about to splash water on me and then I felt myself being pulled back into my body. I awoke and was a little confused what had happened to me. As I started to feel better I started to ask them questions about what they were saying and to my surprise it was accurate. Then I went down the hallway an found my friends an asked them if what I saw them doing was the truth and they both confirmed that they were playing with a ball an throwing it back an forth. I was shocked an so was everyone else.

They all just shrugged it off as that I was playing a joke on them or I had been unconscious but had heard them. But to me I knew that I had felt like I was floating and had felt like I saw them from the ceiling. I never really tried to go any further with anyone that night but I always knew that I had an out of body experience. Then one night I heard a show on coast to coast an decided to write my story here... Ever since this experience I have had strong feelings that there is life after death and that our bodies are just vessels basically.

I have changed in the way of attitude basically before this event I was always getting into fights and arguing with anyone an everyone. From this experience I have been a lot  happier and know that there is something more than this plane of reality. I even have grown a lot more spiritual and religion has fascinated me. I think that before this experience I was afraid of death of even little things but this experience didn't frighten me it made me get a sense of how wonderful life is and how much we have to learn on this plane of existence...
