That was a great short story! We are indeed, the author of our own story. If the rigid routines of daily living never change, well, neither will we. I see people falter and stagnate all the time, mostly out of fear, I suspect.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I worry sometimes people won't have the attention span for these anymore. I wrote this several years ago but was never satisfied with it. I ended up putting some hours into it this morning and it finally feels finished. Fear is epidemic and the ultimate barrier to happiness.
I agree that fear is epidemic, either created by our own mind or instilled in us by government, criminal gangs, peers or what have you...it is no less a ball and chain, than bars that keep us imprisoned.
Glad you finished the story.
Absolutely, the ultimate form of imprisonment is the self-imposed variety. Thank you!
