So the fortune teller is either a fake, demonised or a wayward Christian. The fake can be like Derren Brown using psychology and mind tricks to suggest things. The demonised one sees what the devil is trying make happen depending how deeply she gets into the 'other side'. The wayward Christian still hears from God but assumes it is a supernatural gift from somewhere else. If her husband dies in an accident then the new love of her life may be the fireman who tries to save him.Stephen Jennison-Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12630330314548040274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701527944511633741.post-81801435978667748002011-11-10T22:16:24.906-08:002011-11-10T22:16:24.906-08:00I accept that if what the fortune teller has said ...I accept that if what the fortune teller has said is true then hubby may have decided to leave her.The next day she could have a customer at her business who intrigues her and she decided to hold on for a month or so to see if she gets the contract. It could turn out that the customer was working for the firm offering the contract and was assessing her suitability. He also offers a shoulder when her husband leaves. Having met this stranger she may not yet know he'll be the love of her life.She buys a puppy for company and may believe that this is all the love she'll get.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701527944511633741.post-55777114918462230372011-11-08T17:30:46.873-08:002011-11-08T17:30:46.873-08:00Well, I'm not sure where the story should go e...Well, I'm not sure where the story should go exactly, but the next line could be something like this:<br /><br />"So you believe that your husband is the love of your life?"<br /><br />Perhaps her husband is ultimately the source of her business problems, and finding the TRUE love of her life would help her fix them. She wouldn't be the first person to be held back by the influence of her significant other.Daniel R.

You and I both know love is what you seek. Acceptance is what you desire."<br /><br />Audrey moved to sit again, her hand extended toward the fortune teller. "Will he love me as I want to be loved?"<br /><br />The fortune teller took the young trembling hand in her old wrinkled one and said, "That answer may come with a price you can not afford." She looked up at Audrey and smiled an all-knowing smile.Ed Vargahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17126898189840326447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701527944511633741.post-27869944440171976162011-11-01T09:20:30.043-07:002011-11-01T09:20:30.043-07:00I was toying with that idea myself - thanks for th...I was toying with that idea myself - thanks for the comment and the affirmation that a baby isn't a bad idea:)S.L.
