Covet

What if the life you wanted, and the woman you fell in love with, belonged to someone else? Chris and Claire Canton’s marriage is on life support. Downsized during the recession and out of work for a year, Chris copes by retreating to a dark place where no one can reach him, not even Claire. When he’s offered a position that will keep him away from home four nights a week, he dismisses Claire’s concern that time apart could be the one thing their fragile union can’t weather. Their suburban life may look idyllic on the outside, but Claire has never felt so disconnected from Chris, or so lonely. Local police officer Daniel Rush used to have it all, but now he goes home to an empty house every night. He pulls Claire over during a routine traffic stop, and they run into each other again at the 4th of July parade. When Claire is hired to do some graphic design work for the police department, her friendship with Daniel grows, and soon they’re spending hours together. Claire loves the way Daniel makes her feel, and the way his face lights up when she walks into the room. Daniel knows that Claire’s marital status means their relationship will never be anything other than platonic. But it doesn’t take long before Claire and Daniel are in way over their heads, and skating close to the line that Claire has sworn she’ll never cross.

My Last Testament

When the authorities discover they have missed a serial killer's murders for decades, do they relish the thought of putting away a killer or do they cover up their own ineptness? This short story explores that question with a surprising answer.The first shot shattered the home's rear window and storm glass, plowed a furrow along the man's scalp and buried itself in the opposite wall. The second, without any obstruction to slow its velocity, tore through the wall and ended up in the bathroom medicine chest, where it nested between a bottle of aspirin and a toothbrush. The tall, thin man crumpled to the floor, unconscious, cold November air pouring over him like a waterfall through the broken window. It was a few minutes into a new day, two days before Thanksgiving.

'Alex Hamilton's phone call changed my life'

This is a story of human spirit,human bonds, love kindness and generosity...They say you are among the blessed people of God,when in your heart surges a sea of kindness and love,you desire to love & help every person around you....how does this sea come to be?...Khalil Gibran said 'generosity is giving you what i need more than you do',but why does man practice generosity at all in the first placeIt is amazing how we humans have made it a habit to fall into routine. Life, is a beautiful picture we paint. Each color of it we have the freedom to choose, each stroke of it, we have the freedom to make. While we paint, we do not realize what our life’s picture is becoming because we are too close to the canvas. We do not reflect enough on our life. We do not step back and observe what it is becoming.Had we had the time, we would have seen what a master piece each of our lives is.If we do take time to observe, we will notice that it is painted not only by us, but also by the people we live with. Each person happy with us adds a color, each person we have hurt, or did not care for adds another color.No 2 colors are the same. It is painted not only by us, but by the people whose lives we touch.
