Living with a fear that controls your decisions in life is a terribly thing with many handicaps. Good luck in the prompt. God loves you and we do too.

Somehow, I really couldn't get where this was going (or coming from?), so I took a peak at the contest prompt. (Wow.) Readers should really know what this is all about before taking a gander at entries. :)

    Thank you for the review, Edward. Is the ''wow" a critique? Most reviewers didn't look at the prompt.

This strikes me more of a synopsis of the story rather than a critique, but nonetheless I found it a wonderful read. I love the way you describe the dynamics of the story in terms of self-reflection leading to full self-awareness. I enjoyed this very much. I wish you all the best in the contest voting. Thank you so much for sharing this with me.

    I suppose you have a point. I have not seen a critique from the protagonist's point of view and figured it was more involved with substantive content rather than rhetoric. Thanks for the review. Bill

Wow, deep poetic idea. As I walk through life I learned that my worst enemy is myself. Fear is what we set in our minds. You really have a deep idea and valuable message to the readers but I just think that the idea you hsve here is mostly suitable for a short story or a book or even a novel. You already have a plot. You just need to expand your idea.

I actually like this. YOu describe things quite well. Many people I am sure will be able to associate quite well with it, as I am sure many are living it also. Good job !
