Your ability to stick to your training saved your butt and now, in the aftermath, the stark realization of your "near death experience" has shown you the face of mortality. My advice to you is "Don't look away." In life we are faced with two types of decisions, those that are easy to change and those that are hard to change. You want to make as few of the second type as possible. In that spirit and given that this incident has been a shock it would not be a good idea to make any permanent decision regarding your flying. Your spirit was traumatized. Let it heal before setting your course. Trust that you will know when it is time.
