Really nice story. Sometimes when things seem bad, the smallest sliver of hope can make all the difference. Your last line summed this up nicely.

Comment from Connie C
You've done a very nice job telling your story in so few words, and I must admit that it gave me chills to read it. I had a very similar experience when I stood at my little brother's grave many years ago, shortly after his death. The clouds parted, and the sky seemed to be filled with brightness. I do see one error in your story; I think "sister's" might be wrong. If plural, there shouldn't be an apostrophe. Otherwise, very nice work. Connie C

Comment from jmdg1954
Author,
now this is an excellent entry for this prompt. It had charector, conflict and resolution. Besides, it took an emotional setting, a mother pleading by her son's grave (something that should never happen) with the Lord giving her hope and strength.
Very nicely done... John

Comment from SamanthaD.
Very touching story! I love the hope at the end. I also like the way you used the black & white photo with the gray background. It adds to the starkness of the woman's situation. Thanks for sharing this!

Comment from RebelRose
sister's expect ... I assume this is pleural (more than one sister) no apostrophy needed.
A very poignant story. Sometimes it does seem that we messages from beyond.
