This was a wonderful commentary on your spouse and it sounds by your lovely words that she also made a good choice. It's ashamed that many don't appreciate their partners like you do. CONGRATULATIONS on your many years of matrimony.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello mystery writer. I admired your story not only for the competence of the writing but also for the content of the details. The story is heartwarming. I congratulate you on the success of your marriage. I have always believed that marriage is not a 50-50 proposition. It has to be a 100 proposition. Both parties have to be fully committed. My wife and I have been married for 47 years. You have written an excellent piece and good luck in the contest. Robert

Your comments coming from such a seasoned and professional writer/poet, such as yourself, very encouraging. I am grateful beyond mere words...
Comment from Kathleen S.
What a beautiful interesting read. Not only do you give your reader knowledge about Irish culture, that they might not know, but you also share a deep part of yourself in revealing your own story. Thank you for being willing to do that. I love to hear about bonds of love that are strong and stand the test of time. :)

You are so kind and I am humbled by your generous rating.
Comment from Alex Rosel
This is an engaging read. Somewhat different from the other entries I've read for this contest, but none the worse for that {smiles}.
Here are a few points you might like to consider:
Anam Cara -- I've never heard of this phrase before. Thank you for broadening my horizons {smiles}.
Soul friend doesn't merely refer to the union... -- If this was mine, I'd start the second paragraph here. It keeps the sentences starting with "Instead, it signifies..." in their logical unit. They all have the same focus.
My wife comforts the wounded shadows that sneak out from under the covers -- I particularly like this snippet. It's very descriptive {smiles}.
We can hear each other's silent thoughts; -- I'm not sure about this. Are thoughts anything but "silent"?
