Two comments with concern over losing the devil.<br /><br />I guess my take on it was this... the angel and the devil in this story represent the opposing forces driving the man's self-talk. They were merely the choices he had on how to respond to life. It was a personal battle on how to view life. In the past he was able to view life in positive ways (i.e. influenced by positivity) but the negative views and feelings tended to be stronger and were becoming an overwhelming force. He was feeling as if the devil (the bad thoughts) were winning him over. Fearing he would slip into permanent depression, he wanted to fight off the devil (bad voices) and be once and for all capable of living his life viewing the world with a positive and loving mind.<br /><br />There will always be sadness and evil in the world, it's how you are able to process it that determines how it will affect you.<br /><br />At least that's what I had in mind when I wrote it!<br /><br />Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate it!nacherluverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08009387005362252630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333688791304915802.post-45288164940937415372012-10-23T02:14:58.936-07:002012-10-23T02:14:58.936-07:00I like both endings but would prefer love to win. ...I like both endings but would prefer love to win. Very cool and the best part is it makes me think. Here's what I'm thinking: There needs to be balance. Yin and yang. You can't have light without dark, sweet without sour etc. So if the devil dies would the goodness stop existing too???Utahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06812373975164604230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333688791304915802.post-68309477971890045622012-10-23T00:55:03.109-07:002012-10-23T00:55:03.109-07:00What a great story with a very strong moral.
