    Bill, a powerful story as only you could tell it. With just a few paragraphs you paint a vivid picture of the sights and sounds and the soul in turmoil. This is an important message, always, but especially so at this time of year. Thank you.

      Thank you, Peggy, for sharing Bill's post.

      Bill, I liked your short story about the man suffering from deep depression. It sure does contain an important message about taking help if one is depressed. Thank you for sharing a worthy article.

    Bill, this is a sad bur very “real” story and I am sure the idea came to you when it did because it needed to be told. Great writing as we always come to expect from a master story teller.

    Bill
    It's amazing how a story can just come to you in the night...other forces are at work here.

    My guess...this is a story someone needs to hear & you my friend, are the one chosen to deliver it.

    It's heartbreaking when we feel the heavy weight of the world upon us. 
    We feel like we've messed things up so badly that there is no way out.

    Without this person's love...we think life isn't worth living.

    You give Great advice.  Pick up the phone and talk to someone....anyone.

    Captivating story.
