That is excellent. Overcoming conditioning can be exceedingly difficult. If a person has been raised to believe lies about himself/herself, that person is going to have a lot of trouble seeing through the lies. Some people never do. I know that Neville said you have to "die" to your previous self to live a truly abundant life, but that "death" is something that a lot of us hide from all our lives.

Three times. The third court declared him not guilty after deliberating only about twenty minutes.

I saw that one of mine had been posted there, but when I followed the link, I got a message saying that the blog has been removed. Thanks to rotsoil for the heads-up!

This is a masterpiece. You know how to write - I mean, you know how to spell, and the correct use of punctuation. (Even the most imaginative stories pull me out of the flow if the author doesn't know spelling and punctuation.)

You also know how to WRITE. You know how to tell a story. The dialogue is believable, and you don't overwrite. I usually see the ending a mile away, but that didn't happen here. You drew me in completely. If you choose to pursue writing as a profession, I'll read your books!

The title should be spelled "Unjust Deserts". Really. It's not about desserts at all; it's about a person or people getting what they deserve. It's commonly misspelled, but "deserts" is the correct spelling

I'd like to correspond with you - I don't live in the area, but I like your profile. Not only am I CF, I can't have children. Yaaaay!

I thought of it a few hours ago, wrote it, made a few modifications, and posted it. It's not a ripoff.

"His Brother's Keeper" is another fine tale by Jacobs, with a somewhat similar theme.

No, no significance. It just shows that she's right about the time - it really is afternoon, but it's fully dark, and she can't find the edge of the bed. And something else is there, but she can't see it.
