I'm not ashamed to say I'm glad she's dead. I'm glad we're freed from her bondage. I'm glad that we can finally be a family who loves.

It creates reactions and emotions that are uniquely mine. There are no reviews or critiques of the work. Nobody has told me if it is good, bad, controversial, etc. It is just an honest experience of reading something original. Reading words like these make me sad, sentimental, and a little angry. But to get to those feelings, I know I've had to look deeper into my heart than I would have without them. I think I have decided why I enjoy reading the work on this site, yours included.

Maybe it's because of where I am in life right now, maybe it's just my mood right now, but if you were going for the stunted, disconnected feeling and the weird cloud that follows you after a funeral like this, for me, you nailed it.
