- Sleepless night. Wake up feeling like you've been up the whole night
- Think a lot. Re prioritizing your life
- Loss of appetite. You're hungry but you don't feel like eating
- Change of behavior. Subtle changes like talk less, spending habit etc.
- Day dreaming. At work, while driving, or having your meal
People said you'll have flashback in a near death experience but it didn't happen to me. Most probably because I was thinking how to control the situation to save myself.
The after shock came much later after I'd reached home. I was lying on my bed trying to get some sleep after staying up the whole night, but I couldn't.
All of a sudden, I started crying. It was not one of those uncontrollable sobbing but it did hit me hard. The thought that i might die had me in tears.
There are so many things in life i have not done.
My dream of studying abroad...
My dream of spending my life with the one i love...
My dream of giving my mum a better life...
So many regrets.
One day, we will eventually grow old and die. It's a fact.
But i wanted to go without regrets, knowing that i have lived life to the fullest. Now I'm chasing lost time.
If you are given a second chance at life, what would you do?

My dear JL... life is too short for regrets. Say "tak nak" to regrets.
Whatever you wish to achieve or do (long term goals, maybe?), can start planning now... nothing is too late, okie?
Chasing lost time? Nanti penat, macam mana? Don't forget to smell the roses on the way ;)
2nd chance at life ah? Me want more $$$...
*$$ face maa...*
If you had died, that would have been that. It in itself is another journey. But I must say that such experiences are extremely sobering... a second chance... I'm afraid I might just take it for granted again.
There there. These things won't announce that it will happen wor - the good thing is that you're all right.
Don't let thoughts of mortality overwhelm you ya.
oh dear, hope you get over your P.A.S soon.
second chance for me won't be any more different than the first because this is where life happens. Now. carpe diem, remember?
hugs! :)
*hugs*
i kindda know wat ur talking about. happened to me the last time too tho my accident was very minor. thought it wouldnt affect me but i realised the next day i was quite afraid to drive and for a moment kindda 'forgot' how to drive too lol
anyway hope u get over this shock soon. take care jl
oh and to ur question...wat u talking about la! if we're reading this means we dont need a second chance in life, cos life is now lol
at least u know what u want. now just work hard to achieve it lor :)
n u know, even bad experiences contribute to our 'adventures' while we live, dont u think so? :)
Seems like you're already doing all those things that you wanna do. Not everything comes instantly. No one lives life as much as you do so relax. Take a deep breath.
Yes....Carpe Diem!
Paul's right. Is there really anything you could do beyond what you are already doing now? Life is a journey, goals must be worked for slowly. Death cuts the journey short - thus the tragedy. *hugs*
Don't look back at the PAS.
Look to the FUTUR.
Failures und (and in German :P) troubles ultra remedy. :)
Craptastic as usual. You taught me to be that. Where would I be without you? *hugs
Darling.... so sorry I wasn't there for you.... It must be very traumatic experience for you... *tight hugs* the important thing is that you're alive and well... carpe diem is the right thing to do.
"If you are given a second chance at life, what would you do?" I'll correct my mistakes....
*HUGS* Take care.. my dear. Hope the hug is not too late to comfort you. Enjoy the fullest. Dont think too much.
2nd chance at life: hmmm... to have everyone that i love and all of you again in my life! i felt satisfied and happy for what i have. No regret if God would have taken my life now.

Janvier: Thanks... I wanna invent a machine like the one in 'Paycheck' :P
_Butt: Thanks! Carpe diem indeed! :)
K: Thanks. It happened to me as well. I remember there's one time while i was driving back and i heard a loud din. I was startled and my heartbeat went over the roof and it turned out to be a distant thunder :P Very true... it just make life more interesting! thanks pal :)
