Response to your slide show on your profile:
I think that the slideshow reflected a well-rounded Joey. I see a spiritual side that is an anchor in your life and I notice an adventurous side- a young man who wants to travel to a far- away land. I too would love to see the places in the photographs that you included of Australia, and if and when you visit there, make sure you take pictures so you can hone your skills as a photographer!
Response to your Indelible Moments story.
I like the fact that your narrative used first person point of view; it gave your story the quality of the memoir, that is it draws the reader into your account of your indelible moment. It is interesting to note how you found that an unwanted experience from your perspective turned into a life-altering one. That's often how our life experiences turn out, and so we need not be afraid of a new venture. A life lesson learned!
