I had no idea where this piece was heading -- presumably nowhere "good" or happy -- and you really managed to surprise me. This experience is in itself a lesson in taking lessons from life, whether it actually happened to you or is mere fiction. That something like this could help you rediscover Mother Nature's tentative affection for us (and in truth she has a right to be suspicious of us fragile yet brutal human beings, much of the time) is a beautiful takeaway from a tragic accident.
And some of your lines are sheer poetry, by the way! "We released the truth of our pain to the sky and to the Earth, and she held it for us" was one observation that made made me sigh in contented appreciation.

YES IT'S SO GOOD! The sequel is also great if you want to read it. It isn't as good as the first one though. Have you read One For the Murphy's? I thought they were very similar.

I will definitely try to write it, thank you!
I liked this! How did you imagine him getting there?
Thank you!
YES PLEASE DO!!! I would 100% read this! I'm a huge fan of mythology and cowboys. Cowboy remakes scratch the itch in my brain in the best way.
Hi, thank you so much, this helps a lot. Also, what's your novella called? I wanna read it :)
OMG I was making pretzel bites! LOL it always boils over
