Based on the title of this tale, you might think I wasn’t feeling particularly hopeful when I wrote it. Well, not for the character whose journey the story follows, I wasn’t. But as long as you don’t view life and others the same way he did, you won’t have to worry about living through the same worlds he did either.
This story began with a dream … and I doubt anyone will be able to figure out which plot point, character, or line of dialogue in the story depicts that moment of dream inspiration exactly as dreamt. If you’ve got a guess, reach out and let me know, okay?
