Not Broken

"When I was with him, I didn't feel broken. I'd lived through so many tragedies. I'd loved men but it was never the kind of love that puts a smile on my face day after day," Aislyn said into her beer as she traced the peeling label on the Fat Tire bottle.

"I've always felt like something was wrong with me, like I was lacking that part of my psychology which motivates the soul to seek love. I prayed for love with little faith that God would provide. When I met Riley, I began hoping for all those things I never dared to dream."

"What the hell happened? Why did you leave Iowa?"

"There is no redemption in the past only pain and confusion."
