Comment from Frank Atwood
Interesting dream and story. We all have visions and truths of from where we came from and to where we shall return. The figures in your dream who you perceive as God is the Father you follow, and yes our souls are always afraid to give themselves up to be humbled or mellowed by anyone. Thus that is why the scripture, 'The meek shall inherit the earth.' is so descriptive of the only true Father. Many never find humility or the strength to humble themselves which changes the soul from a mortal soul to an immortal soul, in the blink of an eye. The one thing missing in your dream was the feeling of love within or around the people in it. You ate and made yourself full of it's pleasure, thus you are of this world and upon resurrection shall return from where you came. This world of men. Until one seeks, finds and feels the love of God the Father, ones soul shall never change but shall stay the same. I've been in my Father's light and heard his voice call my name and the love connected to both of them, I asked and requested to come home, but it wasn't my time. Thus the rest of my life has changed for the better. Not only has my heart and mind changed, but so has my soul, and thus I'm a fool among men and yet free of this worlds laws and rituals that binds one's soul to this world in which it will return, life after life after life, until the chain is broken through meekness, mellowness and humbleness which comes from a loving Father who few find let alone seek. For so many are to busy trying to fit into this world and worry not about the next.
Your truth deserves 6 stars and hope I haven't offended you. I felt the urge to share my truth which is not the same as yours, just so you know we are all on the same journey. The only differences is how we see ourselves and wish to interpret truth. We shall all be resurrected yet few shall find immortality for as you yourself said, one hates to give up ones soul. It's to who we give it up to that matters. Hang on to yours a bit longer, till you find yourself surrounded in love, then give it up and begin to learn as can't be taught by men.
God bless. Keep up the great writing.

thanks for the six stars and this inspiring review. I did feel the love. I also got a warning.
Comment from Dukeagles
I too was a "good Catholic" boy. The reference helps to put some kind of context to what follows. This chapter seems to amble through undefined time periods that are a bit confusing. We find out at the end that "...it's been a long time since this happened,.." but it would help to understand if we are comparing adolescence to adulthood, or some other time frame. The "God stuff" is funny, but I think was not fully taken advantage of in a satirical sense. Possibly a missed opportunity.
I have reconsidered some of my comments above because of the excerpt nature of these words, which accounts for some of my disorientation.

Well it is a book and if you read the book it would put things in context. This is the way it happened. I did not embellish or add any details that I didn't remember. 3 stars is a little harsh I think. But welcome to fanstory just the same. Tim

Good points. Unfair to judge these words as only a partial sample from your book. I added comments to my review,and upped the grade.
Comment from Aarondodd1989
Interesting piece. i'm not a fan of highly religious content but this was fictional enough that I could take it. There is could character delopment and each on, even God, is believable. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Janie King
Very interesting...so this is a writing assignment? It is non-fiction...I'd say you had an encounter with God, at least in a way that you understood,,and God wishes that we understand so that we cna do what needs to be done, in His way. God bless.

Comment from abbasjoy
This is an incredible story, but not unbelievable. I am glad you came to the realization that you can only get to the Father through His Son Jesus.It is a well written encounter, very descriptive detailed.
I noticed that some places you had God as god, not sure if that was just an oversight. There are also a few Typos (than instead of then)
Good job.
This is well

Comment from Permelia
Wow! I'd say God gave you quite a dream in order to answer your questions and show you what offended God. You must be greatly loved!
Someone came in and handed god a - God needs a capital

This was very imaginative andit's always interesting to speculate on these things. It was told in straight forward, unembellished language from a personal point of view. An engaging write.

Dream sequences are very hard to write. Out of the body experiences are harder. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words.
