Image for BCOF members to put in their blogs"Prompt: Write about a strange experience that you've had - one that can't be explained rationally."

My ex-wife and I lived in a house in Ohio. One night we came home and I suddenly saw in my mind that a little boy named "Joey" had drowned in a small pool of water in our basement. This had been years before we moved in. I saw that he was wearing an off-white t-shirt with yellow, blue, and red pins strips and a pair of powder blue shorts. I saw his tombstone in my mind and knew exactly where he was buried. The next day I took my wife to the cemetery. We came in from the back way so all the stones faced away from us. I took her straight to his stone and on it was a six-year-old boy's picture wearing the clothes I described. We looked up his death certificate: he had drowned. It later turned out he had been murdered.

She said she is battling an incurable illness. The prompt says "I am absolutely alone in this world
with no one to empathize my sorrow."

As a therapist and chaplain by profession, my heart goes out to her. Can we give her some love? Remember, affiliated reviews get credited.

As a therapist in the helping fields and as a chaplain my heart goes out to anybody who is depressed or struggling with illness. I wish there were some way I could take it away for them but the world we live in will not allow that to happen. All we can do is actively listen and support each other as we struggle forward with our lives. My wish for this writer and my hope is that by the time we do these blogs and reviews she is feeling much better. I want her to know that somebody does care about her. She is not alone and we will be here for her.

Created by the talented  [Link To User poulynoe] Prompt: "Give a testimony of a miracle Jesus has worked in your life."

The biggest miracle Jesus worked in my life was taking a sinner bound to split hell wide open and turning him into a seminary student at one of the most prestigious universities in the country and a chaplain of the West Virginia Veterans Home. I was addicted to drugs twelve years ago and virtually worthless to anybody. Then Jesus turned me completely around and put me on the right track.

Blog City image small "Prompt: When you revise a piece, what are the steps you take, and where do you stop? Do you stop when you think you are making things worse instead of improving them or when you are sick of working on the piece or when you think you’ve done the best and this is it?"

I seldom revise. When I do I find I end up rewriting the whole thing and make as many mistakes in the second one as I do the first. It gets quite frustrating. So I try not to make revisions. I do occasionally correct a grammar mistake but that is about it.
