I'm not a naturally neurotic person, but it turned me into one for a while, right?
And at one point, I went to my wife, like, honey, just tell me I'm really here, that I survived.
She said, of course you're here.
You survived, you know, et cetera, et cetera.
But my mind was like, that's exactly what a hallucination would tell you, right?
I was inching towards madness.
So finally, long story just to sort of finally answer your question.
where I landed, you know, so I'm reading the NDE stuff and the sort of like the scaredy cat in me is like, oh, wow, that's pretty convincing.
Like maybe there is an afterlife.
Maybe we don't have to be worried.
Like, wow, how pleasant, right?
How pleasant to think like that there's something to go on to, right?
Nothing to be scared of.
And then I read afterwards,
The sort of like party poopers, right?
Just sort of like the rationalists come in like nonsense.
We can explain all this.
