Abstract
I wrote this essay for English 104 after being particularly struck by the assigned readings concerning death. Together they brought up an experience that I had tried to forget about; most likely because it was the one moment in my life where I felt most helpless and afraid. Looking back now, I regard it in a different way. My time here is limited and this one occurrence ought to be looked upon as a reminder that life is a gift and should be treasured.
