Comment from giraffmang
This is a great little piece. It reads almost like a parable and is very well executed.
It started with me standing in front of a huge brick wall with no end in sight and extends into thick white clouds above.- this feels a little disjointed after the conjunction. perhaps something like 'with no end in sight, extending to the thick white clouds above.
All questions, I have no answer for. - I don't think you need the comma here.
Personally, I think I'd use steps instead of stair throughout.
I've always had an issue with the pearly gates, silver and gold images. It just doesn't feel very heavenly to me. Man's interpretation of beauty, perhaps?
Good stuff

Comment from Winslow
Dear Papasmike,
Quite a dream. A wall of your own making which you could get to the top by reading the bible. I agree it can provide guidance for those seeking the way. The Hebrews were amazing to develop the idea of a just and merciful God.

Winslow

Isin't it funny that we are the ones that put us in our self imposed prisons, the prison doors that aren't locked, we can come and go as we please. Jesus paid the price to be free.

The wall represents our nation as it stands today separating humanity. Will we ever overcome our own miseries to be able to see others.

Comment from K. R. Ward
I loved the message of the story, as well as the symbols used. However, from a story-teller prespective the character never had a sense of panic about where he was, which took away from the suspense of the plot. Best!

Comment from Sally Law
This more than works my writer friend! This is outstanding and so sweet. Jesus is so very good to us and is the way to everything especially to the father in heaven. Thank you for this wonderful story, albeit a dream. A reminder not to let a things separate us from intimate fellowship with God.
All my best to you in yours,
Sally

Comment from royowen
I've always envisioned the understanding and discovery of unconditional love, that exudes from the heart of God, I don't I'll ever completely, until I see Him as He is. I rather like the wall theory, but I'm not sure it develops wisdom per Se. But beautifully written Mike, good job, blessings, Roy

Well done
Comment from LIJ Red
I dream ragged scraps. In one, a girl I knew came crying "The Beast of the Apocalypse is coming out of the sea." We ran to see it...Godzilla...
An excellent faith flash fiction..
Old men dream dreams and young men see visions...

Many thanks for the awesome review. This one was a blast to write, my pencil was flowing across the tablet. I guess I'm still dreaming the dream.
Have a great day and God bless.
