บท 298: CHAPTER 298 Alive

　　"Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls."

　　- Matthew 11:28-30

　　I sat bolt-upright in bed, my body zinging with power, wheezing, my lungs inflating like I'd been deprived of air. The room spun so that I couldn't see and I gripped my head in my hands because my brain suddenly felt too big for my skull.

　　I fell back onto the pillows again, gasping, writhing, aware of eyes on me, but the pain was consuming- and breathtaking as I felt the flows work through me and my body knit back together.

　　It turned my heart in my chest.
