Death. It is an inevitability. Is there anything beyond or are we just fooling ourselves? When you live your life believing there is nothing after death... what would it take to change your mind? This is a 600 word short story.
I really liked this short story, which deals with themes of death and spirituality in a very entertaining, believable manner. Even though it is very short, it has not skimped on any details as it makes its points well, and has an unexpected ending.
Thanks for the read. Was his nickname of his kids "E squared" a play on words since he is the more logical/science-based/non-religious type? I thought that was clever
Read all your stories last night. Once I finished one, I had to read the others.
I'm writing all the reviews now...
This was well done - sad but not maudlin.
Nicely written in such a short story.
