What is Deserved? asks Friday’s Guest Writer (07)

What is Deserved? asks Friday’s Guest Writer (07)

A friend said to me: “I think there is something wrong with deserving.”

Reading her response has forced me to rethink my use of these words. Misuse? I’ll be curious what you think.

101.4: Unringing the Bell (Part 4 of 5)

101.4: Unringing the Bell (4 of 5) – Some House Cleaning

101.3: Unringing the Bell (3 of 5) – The Human Beings

101: Unringing the Bell (1 of 5) – No excuse

There is not a way back after the first act. I cannot unring the bell no matter how many lies I tell or secrets I keep about my betrayal.
