Pretty much what you'd expect but a good reminder and something to think about.
I got really lucky on this one myself. I was hit by a car when I was 19. Up to that point I'd lead a very repressed life. That brush with death changed me. Made me realize that I only get one shot at being me. Better to make the most of it. You can't save-up your life for when you have the time to experience it. You need to do it now as you live. That stuff is your life. If it sucks, figure out how to change it. Take a chance.
I spent my teen years cutting myself and praying that I wouldn't wake up in the morning. I was too scared to actually kill myself but I wasn't happy. If it hadn't been for that car, I might still be that way or I might have finally succumbed. I wish I could have learned this lesson without the loss of my front teeth, my flute playing, and my memory but in some ways, I am thankful to have learned it when I did.
