FINAL DESTINATION 5 Contest

For many, this right here, where I work, where I live, is their final destination. I work quietly, and in the shadows so as not to disturb friends and families as they come to visit their dead. Sometimes I run into our visitors because we are crossing the same path, or perhaps they have come near a headstone where I am working and at that point there is very little I can do to be unseen.

Visitors are common here, at all hours of the day, when the gates are open that is. Once the gates are closed, and night falls, our class of visitor is well, let’s just say different.

Just this afternoon I overheard the conversation of a young woman and a young man who had come to the cemetery to visit a recently deceased friend of theirs. The young couple was clearly in the early stages of mourning. Yet, the man seemed more distraught. The man told the woman how he felt guilty for not having reached out to his friend the night of the accident. He broke down into tears and shared a story with the woman he had not told anyone else. The man claimed to have been visited by the apparition of their living friend shortly before this person died. He initially attributed the apparition to a hallucination.  Later, that very evening, he received a phone call indicating that his friend died in a traffic accident. He had wondered desperately since then if there was something he could have done to have prevented the car accident.

There are many superstitions surrounding death and there are indeed reports of people seeing the apparition of a living person shortly before that person dies. Some people who do believe in death omens believe that there is very little to stop death. After all, the only guarantee in life that we have is that we will die. Therefore, can we really ever cheat death for long?

This all made me wonder. Are there people out there who have cheated death? Have you had a near death experience? Were you saved by a friend? Do you believe luck, or something else, saved you from an appointment with the Grim Reaper?

    • The Whittier Narrows Earthquake of 1987 caused significant damage to Whittier and a few people lost their lives. Glad you made it out alive Steve!
