How can we ever know the full extent of what happened that strange night? Through the dead man's eyes, how can we ever know. And, the most agonizing thing is that there could be so much more. The dead man could have seen, experienced so much more, and we, living men and women will never know because ultimately we are alive and he wasn't when it happened. We can never know, except when we die ourselves and we can never share that information with anyone else, but only until we reach the afterlife. wow.
