Thank you for your feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed this story. The analogy holds true for all types of relationships, not merely romantic, so I hope this might help someone along the way.
As I told you when I first read it, it was a tough circumstance, and subject, that you handled extremely well. It could have gone a lot of different ways, but I'll give you two thumbs-up for a job well done.
A very enjoyable read, Andy. Seeing I'm getting up in years, I hope when the Angel of Death comes for me that it's someone cute like that, because then I'll go willingly. If the Angel is like the Darker version everyone else uses, I'll probably fight him tooth and nail. Great job and I really enjoyed this.
Is it a voice I hear calling to me?
Why is It telling me that I am my brother’s keeper?
Is this merely my conscience speaking?
Or is it the voice of God that I hear?
Although I do not live a lavish lifestyle
Nor do I possess the wealth I’d dreamed of attaining
The quality of my life has been more than adequate
And I do not want for any basic needs.
However, I am aware there are many in the world
Who are not so lucky and much worse off than I,
Because they lack suitable food and water,
Does Shakespeare's line from Hamlet, "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." ring a bell. Maybe they're afraid that seeing one will turn them on. LOL
I'm liking Louisville. I've always thought Rick Pitino was an awesome coach, from his early days in the Big East until now. He always seems to have his teams prepared for the big games.
Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed this story. As I told KC, I didn't go into the initial relationship because this was a short story and the 'Night to Remember' had to do with their treasure find, not finding each other.
KC, I see you've gotten more in touch with your feminine side. Nicely done. This had particular relevance to me, because I had relatives who were deaf. They could often feel the vibrations from the music and receive a certain amount of enjoyment from it, but with the advent of computers and such, it's neat how deaf people can also view the colors of a musical piece as well. Another wonderful story.
