Thanks, Jessi! I just wanted people to stop and think that even when things are at their bleakest, we are still not alone. Miracles happen if we believe that they can. Have a great day!

Quite the interesting story. You managed to tell it in exactly the 100 words as required and have the required parts of flash fiction.
Besides all that, your story was well told and intriguing of these two individuals, standing at the edge of the clliff watching the crashing waves.
Best of luck.

Thanks John...Coincidence or fate? I would like to think that somewhere in the Heavens their prayers were heard and answered. Thanks so much for reading my flash. Have a great day!

I thought this was well written. I thought the dialogue between Jesse and the weathered woman works so well. You can see the deep sorrow and the hope that intertwines their lives. For me this showed that even in our darkest moments we are not alone.

Perfect! That was exactly I hoped to portray. That when we think there is no hope and consider ending everything, we must reach deep inside and know that someone loves us and they will be left to struggle with whatever you decide. Do you want to do that to them?
Have a great day!

Your story starts sad, and ends glad, and I wish the creator allowed you to extend past one hundred words, as you whetter my appetite as to what follows next.
