Hi Bill,
That's a pretty cool story. I never thought of an empath working that way. Absorbing all of the pain in that way... but I guess that they do. Healing is feeling. ;)

That was a really excellent story told in only 100 words. Wouldn't it be lovely if there were people like that everywhere? Pain and suffering would cease to exist. I enjoyed reading this flash fiction. Well done and good luck in the contest.:) Sandra xx

A very good story put together in so few words. All the elements there and done beautifully. Intriguing subject matter. You never really know what you'll do until you step into another's world. Enjoyed!

I know about empaths, although I didn't realize the consequences could be so harrowing. Is this an exaggeration?
I hope so. Well written. Good luck in the contest.

As far as I know, empaths, like this, are fiction.

Bill, This is a very interesting and well worded 100 word flash fiction story you have penned for the contest. You used very good descriptive words and very neat imagery from the art work you chose. Best wishes in the contest. Blessings, Teri

This certainly demonstrated the character of an empath, and upon reading it it makes me consider the writer's relationship to the feelings. It also seems to point out that empathetic feels can be transferred from one to another. An interesting and faith-based concept I would agree with wholeheartedly. Best of luck in the contest. Loren

She reminds me of the black guy on the Green Mile, the way he could heal everybody. So she was able to pass empathy on to him? Good luck in the contest.

Hi Bill.

As I was reading this, I wondered where it was going to go. Delighted that the ending was as clever as the beginning. I love how your imagination works and can't wait to read the next one. Good luck.
