> greek flag > near death experience i was in the sea off a certain greek island during a volcanic eruption. all details aside i was done, it was over and in a few seconds i was fated to experience drowning and death. would anyone ever find my body or know what became of me, lost to the sea like so many souls before me, how did i get myself into this, oh well i cant fight the waves any longer its my time, now for my death. and as my feet went down first i then stood up. in the middle of the sea. i was standing on tip toe on one foot on what is in normal times a needle of rock a couple of inches wide at the tip which is usually jutting up above the water ten feet(?) or so. its the only one. it was about 55 under the water that day.  the shore was getting further and further away because of the rising water but long story short i managed to stay on tip toe long enough to gather my strength back, washed off by each wave id swim back until i was strong enough to make for some jetsome from what had been a floating pier. thus i am alive.
