Well-written and thought-provoking. Just what I’ve come to expect from Cricket.

What a great story. Maybe a little dark, but many will always say Maybe Tomorrow.

Love and Hugs,

Hi Cricket I was just wondering what has happened to Slice of Life Sunday? Has the meme finished, and what is happening with the publisher?

Great read Cricket! The newspaper motif works so well for you here,and you’ve drawn light to such an important truth. I agree with Selma, sometimes one’s hold on rationality can be extremely fragile, and all it takes is one more little thing. It is so sad, and so unfortunately realistic. Nicely done, this will keep me thinking for some time to come!

How sad. It’s so true we never know the whole story. Actually we never know a whole person do we? Even when we think we know them fully in and out, their motivations are only for them to know.
Interesting take on the prompt, Cricket.

It is so often like this. Dark but full of insight. Excellent.

Yes. It’s the last straw that breaks the camel back. A well-written and thought provoking piece. Thanks, DavidM

The subject matter may be dark, but it is exceptionally well written. Sadly, this is the course of many people’s lives – that sense of never living up to their full potential, or dreams never being realised. Often it’s the small things that break us, isn’t it? Like no roast beef for dinner. I won’t forget this for a while. Shocking and sad.
