4/3

 The first day I made the varsity soccer team felt like the start of a powerful story. I still remember the coach calling out my name, and for a second, I thought I heard it wrong. I had worked so hard, training after school, running on weekends, pushing past every doubt. Standing there in that moment, surrounded by older players who I used to look up to, I realized I wasn’t just a kid anymore—I was part of something bigger. It felt like a turning point, like I was stepping into the version of myself I’d always wanted to be. That day didn’t just change my season—it changed my confidence, my goals, and how I saw my future.

Scientists, though, say these experiences might just be the brain reacting to trauma, like a flood of chemicals creating hallucinations. I think there could be truth in both views—maybe NDEs are our minds trying to make sense of something we don’t fully understand. If they are real, they could mean there’s an afterlife, which is both comforting and a little scary. Either way, NDEs remind me how mysterious life and death really are.
