This is a strong entry, your style is peculiar and skillful. I especially like the opening splendid sentence. the ending was justified too.

Well done

Interesting topic!

Liked these lines: a dream travel agency. The only one without a precise time of arrival or departure.:).. nobody can live like a stubborn wild horse only in the present.

Good job!

Hi apelle,

I enjoyed the story. Interesting and different. I like the idea of the dream travel agency and your right, what would life be without our dreams and memories. The last paragraph sums your thoughts up nicely. Best wishes in the contest and thank you for sharing.

The best of luck in the contest. I love the idea of a dream travel agency. I can see where this would be very attractive. Especially in the middle of a migraine. But your conculsions are right. We do need our memories, good and bad. They are a part of who we are. I really enjoyed the last line that now is a wild horse that is difficult to keep a seat on.

Adina, this is lovely. I wondered what a prompt without rules would net me? Answer? This clever flight. I like the multiple negative at the end, too. Good luck in the voting booths tomorrow. Pat. xx

Yet another great submissions You definitely have a talent with descriptive writing as exemplified in these lines:
I walked endlessly round and round with my thoughts flashing vaults of lightning on my cortex until I became flooded with memories.
Keep up the good work and best of success with your future submissions...Gideon

Your story of being trapped by a migrain hits home for me. I used to let my mind wander so that I could relax as much as the headache would permit. The flashes of light would turn into journeys that allowed my mind to leave the migrain--but not the pain.

Excellent write. Good luck in the contest.

very interesting story line.
I work with clearing my memories to help manage my stress levels and so can relate to your thought process.
I would like the see this story expanded on. I think it has the potential to make a larger impact on the reader because the concept is a valid one and a very useful tool to help people in their lives.

thank you for sharing

good luck in the contest
