Judgment Day
When I was a just a little boy, I was swimming with my friends, we held hands and formed a circle and round and round we went. Panic gripped a playmate who could no longer touch the ground, she clung to me so desperately, as she was dragging me down.
I had swallowed lots of water and much to my surprise, every moment of my lifetime flashed before my very eyes. I reviewed every interaction, with everyone I’d ever known, gentle judgments guided me to see, I’d reaped what I had sown.
Time was standing still, or I never could have seen, every moment of my life pass by, as if within a dream. I could see so clearly now the error of my ways, in my heart I realized, this was the Judgment Day.
There was no hope of survival, yet I did not seem to mind, I was enraptured and enlightened by what was going through my mind. Out of nowhere came a lifeguard, after what seemed eternity, He made a timely rescue and interrupted Judgment Day.
Many years have passed since then, but time has not erased, the memories of what I saw and learned, on that fateful day. They’ve guided me insightfully, in a consequential and enduring way. I knew I’d never be the same, and I’d remember Judgment Day.
