Reality is it, JL. Dreams? Sure. But you can't always count on dreams. You can one hundred percent count on reality. Thank you for being here. ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

You're braver than I am - I cover the danged thing... just peeking enough to make sure I haven't forgotten curlers in my hair or some other faux pas that would scare folks if I walked out the door! LOL Great write, JP! |

Not sure if you've read Goodkind's Sword of Truth series, in which case a confessor is someone who extracts truth with just a touch, although simultaneously melting all neccessary brain functionality... or just from a religious vantage point, where you confess you sins hoping for some sort of absolution but in either case it's profoundly scary. Great write. Michael |

Nope, Michael, missed out on that series, but my brain functionality has been diminishing greatly over the years. Hah! No lie. Thank you for finding this and shooting it upward. ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |
