I think we see people as we want to see them, James. Too bad they are not always what they seem. Excellent submission for Chris's contest. Good luck! Diane

Great entry for the deception contest, James. I'm wondering if you had someone in mind when you wrote this. One of the other entries was about a chamelion, a creature that changes colors. Nice take! Wishing you success. Love, Carolyn
