RE: Finish The Story Contest - Week #58!
It's always easier when there are a couple of votes in already, can't really split a vote when I'm the first one in. Damn. Okay. Can't even vote tactically so much anymore, you guys are too good at outwitting me in the judging and not being easy to predict on the top spots.
They were all really good. No, that's an understatement, we had some really rich entries this round, a veritable solyanka of stories, and i could have justified voting for pretty much each one, and along the way, I have thought of a reason each one stood out. But there was something about this one that really caught me off guard - although plenty of them did, and some probably more so than this one, but the shock in this entry was so ordinary and so real feeling.
Thank you @calluna!
I read your entry. I read about your loss too. If this is what you come up with when finding it difficult to focus, I wonder what you can come up with in normal times. Wait. I already know what you can come up with. 😊
Great story and sorry for your loss.

To be fair, I wrote one of my favorite stories following a loss last year but I think that was somehow different, this time I had a lot of emotions i was finding it harder to process and being able to project a little of them onto characters and not have them be mine for a little bit was really cathartic. Thank you <3<3
Agreed emotions work in interesting ways, bordering on funny. A situation drenched in emotion could egg us on while a similar situation would want us to bail out. To be fair, I've never seen you bailing out. You are a true champion!! God bless! 😊
