(A conversation with a COVID-19 patient who survived)
"You almost died that day. If you remember, you asked me to make sure to inform your family. How did you feel before I put you on a ventilator, and we all knew this might be your last conscious moment?"
"It was interesting. At that given moment, there was a massive surge of acceptance to death. There was no fear. I was even devoid of any faith or religion. I didn't care if God exists. Suppose there is anything after death, well and good. If it is all over, let it be. Interestingly, I was still worried about my youngest child, who is still not grown up. Otherwise, no possession mattered".

"No possession mattered"
That reminds me of Sikander Azam story he ordered his hands to be shown outside the coffin empty, Remember?
But it is still brave moment. I don't know I may feel the same but I have already lived my life to full all I have is to remind me of the bag of my sins to bother me. May be I will make a sincere attempt at asking forgiveness from Allah I cant imagine myself without faith/religion
Uncle, your comment reminded me of a conversation with a 92 years old COVID patient. Let me blog it.
