- Final notes: Thank you all for your entries. I enjoyed each of them. The next contest will be on the power of choice. How eliminating denial held finally ended up freeing you by allowing you to see things clearing and truthfully, instead of how you wished them to be. Feel free to enter and above all, have fun...Thanks again... -Eddy
