I loved your story Sack. It has everything that makes a good Christmas story. You brought tears to my eyes. Good luck with the contest.

Wonderful Christmas Story

Full of emotion and I must admit a few tears fell here also. Good luck with the contest.

Thank you!!!

To say that I really enjoyed your story would be a very blatant understatement. In an area where the stories contain loads of sex, incest, and quasi romantic feelings you aroused much more.........again, THANK YOU!

"Luminous" (so the New Yorker would say!)

Such a powerfully simple story of loss, redemption, and beatification. Worth spreading 'round the world!

Aw....

You made me well up, damn you! I remember the story of the little Match Girl, thanks for giving it back to me...and thanks for showing that there are still people out there that can think beyond the materialism that has become the holidays.

Author comment...

I am overwhelmed by the reaction to this story and appreciate your support. Yes, I cried buckets while writing it as well, couldn't even see the monitor at one point! I wrote this because holidays have always been hard for me, for a lot of reasons, and "holiday blues" is apparently quite common. Thank you again!

Sack, sobbing contentedly

Touching, Moving, Etc.

Giving this a 5 was simple but the score in my opinion doesn't do it justice-I'm an older guy, have a job that makes me cynical about people and sometimes life I guess-but this gave me chills as I read it-never read nor heard of the Match story so I went and found it-Hans C. Anderson-wrote a nice story but nothing like this one. Sack, I have to tell you-this is the first story I've read by you-but certainly will be taking a look at others. I don't know how it'll do in the contest-but in my book you have a winner-would suggest this one to anyone and everyone.

Wow...

I am really impressed by the multiple levels of your story, the *substance*. That is a quality so often missing in stories and one that is not easily done. ;) Your words have both depth and beauty. Well done!

A really good story but...

Please, just a little too much sentiment. Funny, my eyes are blurry, er, must be allergies...

Short and powerful

A very moving story. The emotions ran rampant throughout, towards an inevitably powerful conclusion. Great job!

Not many stories have stirred my emotions

This one certainly did.

This story is among Literotica's best.

Hell, what am I saying?

This story is one of the best I have ever read ANYWHERE!

Dear Dear Sack. Once again you've left me speechless. Either you have me laughing hysterically, crying or well, you know....

Thanks for a wonderful story!

Reverence...

Such a charming story ~ one that inspires and at the same time makes you feel there is a lot of sadness in this world. If this story don't touch your heart ~ better go see a cardiologist.
