The Eternal I That I Am

I didn't tell anyone of my experience for the longest time. It was because I thought  they would think I was crazy, or that I was lying or making it up. I was only 12 years old when it happened. It was the beginning of a lifelong question that never seemed to have an answer.
After that day, I knew in the depths of my being, that I was not this body that people see, and came to know as me. 
It was the day that the eternal touched my consciousness to remind me of who I am. As I floated up near the ceiling, I looked down on my lifeless body below. It was very brief, as I quickly returned bringing animation back to my body. Once again, I looked at the world through these physical eyes that were the only things I had known, until now. Now I knew something different, I wasn't sure what it was, but it was eternal.
