I throw them in a hole and start shovelling dirt on them.

Without the stones there's no story or character development either. Impressive blog - love to know how you've built such a strong following....have you already posted on that subject?

It takes it out of me, emotionally, but I love the results.Urban Milkmaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01669236770815247883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2622477097361465.post-90117562204168961722011-09-11T17:48:08.571-07:002011-09-11T17:48:08.571-07:00I really liked your point at the end - it is so mu...I really liked your point at the end - it is so much easier to identify with someone who's been through hell and come out stronger on the other end than someone who's always had it easy.<br /><br />Excellent food for writerly thought!!Crystalhttp://littlebundleofcontradictions.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2622477097361465.post-72621113951471481922011-09-11T14:45:38.507-07:002011-09-11T14:45:38.507-07:00@Komz - You'll have to ask God.
