- "Nicely spoken sentiment that stretches the normal boundaries of the "perception" of God."

- "Egads... like ripping off a bandaid, but knowing there are a thousand more to go. Kudos to sharing thoughts and feelings many wouldn't ever admit to having."

- "I doubt I can say anything that hasn't already been said... but even so, this piece was a powerful punch in the gut. It's not politically correct at all, which instantly creates a bit of fascination. The world seems to focus on "warm fuzzies" and just doesn't realize how the pokes and jabs help us become stronger. Parents face the toughest decisions in the world, and all of 'em screw up something at some point in time, if not everything. My own mother certainly never pulled any punches, and I *own* the world in which I walk, now, because I know the truth of things. As a father... well... I hope I'm doing right by my own children as well. Thanks for this write."

- "Very nice flow and creativity to this piece, with a jolt back to reality in the closing. Very "Walter Mitty"ish, in a sense, but more focused on the feelings behind the daydreams. Quite good."

- "Feeling a bit automated today? Trapped in the routine? I prescribe a good dousing to short circuit that routine, perhaps a short trip outside of ordinary circles to discover the OOOH's and AAAAAHHH's of an unplanned day spent wholly on self."

- "Short and to the point, a question we've all faced. I like the tic grammar with the "Where has me gone?" I can almost feel the quotes around "me"!"

- "Although I too noticed the echo, and enjoyed it in the reading of the work, I didn't find anything frightening or eerie to it, but rather my own interpretation... the universe's reminder that no matter how great we think we are, everything we've done, everything we are, everything we will be is... so tiny and unimportant when compared to the grand scheme of things. Thanks for sharing the link! Nice to have a voice in my head for all of the future reads..."

- "ahh, the hope that can be found in sentimental memories. I've run across many with similar tales, and I can "almost" feel the poetry around their story, but I've never quite captured it like this, even in my own circumstances. Aye, even the opening line... "Dear timeless eyes". So very glad this was front page, today..."

- "BTW, have missed this place somewhat, as I tried to avoid it through the "healing" process, but it's so nice to make a return, share my thoughts, and read works like this. Love your talent, lass... indeed I do."

- "...what you didn't choose to type... painful, yes, but the crux. "I choose to remain still and stoic.....sunk into the category of every unknown woman". In the old days, this would have been cradling a handset, listening to the silence after dialing all but the last digit... yes?"
