title: Love The Person You're With: Life-Changing Insights from the Most Compelling Near-Death Experiences Ever Recorded
author: David Sunfellow
description: David Sunfellow is the founder and president of NewHeavenNewEarth (NHNE), a small internet-based non-profit that is located in Sedona, Arizona. NHNE first appeared online in 1984. It was one of the first spiritually oriented organizations to emerge on the internet. It was also one of the first organizations to make a search for the truth (rather than promoting specific religious or philosophical agendas) its primary goal. In 2009, after realizing that near-death experiences were emerging as a global phenomenon, David began using NHNE's resources to investigate all aspects of NDEs.

  I spent two long years on a bleak world circling a cold sun on the edge of the
  Halcyon Drift. I was lucky. There was air, and water, and the local vegetation
  was digestible enough to keep me alive - just. I was also unlucky. My ship was
  smashed and my partner was dead and even with a bleep sending out a perpetual
  cry for help the situation had a hint of the hopeless about it. Those two
  years did me more harm than the half-a-lifetime I had spent in space. A
  spaceman's expectancy of life is not so grand that two years can go missing
  and not matter.
  
  1 had little to occupy my time on the rock except survival and standing up the
  cross on Lapthorn's grave every time the wind blew it down - which was often.
  I had memories, but I'm not a man to derive much warmth from memories, and
  they were more like ghosts that haunted me. U
