Very well written that you have to figure out that the four legged creature is really a handicapped person who uses cruttches. Wow, also how you describe how life growing up different made it difficult. There’s more that I see here, but if I am in the wrong then I must be careful how I elaborate. Really paints a picture with the words and their meaning. How a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! This one means a lot to me personally. I wrote it in college & brought the T.A. who led the class to tears…That moment has stuck with me for ages.

So beautiful. Not so different at all. Essentially, stripped down to the core, no one is really too different. :o)

This is beautifully written. It touches all of us where there is a wound that has not healed or will not heal, an infirmity. And it speaks of wanting to be loved and accepted, no matter what the differences or ailments, as we all need. Smiles from Jane:-) Nice portrait of you too, I really like it.
