One of the alternate endings is that the veteran turns out to be a wasp. That's my original intention, but I changed it midway while writing this. Both have their inherent meanings behind it, haha :)la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-27486915085164498642015-12-06T23:08:58.446+08:002015-12-06T23:08:58.446+08:00Hi LP,

If ever, I write a book, I want to invite u to be my editor or even co-author? haha<br /><br />Possible? <br /><br />Veterans cannot predict what kind of bears will come, and they certainly cannot be certain how to fight with them. The simple truth to be about Veteran is they are definitely more resilient when a bear crisis hit, because they are better prepared. Although they will be badly hit as well, but they will bounce back for sure, and faster! <br /><br />I guess what makes them Veteran is first they know themselves so so well. In ur story, veteran bee does not even know him/herself WELL because she does not even know a bee cannot sting more than once!" This is a big problem!!! <br /><br />Second, most Veterans tend NOT to be very surprised when "unexpected events beyond imagination take place!" This is because Veterans had seen many unexpected things happened in the lifetime. And they tend to prepare for the worst! <br />Rolf Sueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10723925075715114650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-15909849459821282422015-12-05T00:22:59.992+08:002015-12-05T00:22:59.992+08:00Hi SMOL,

That's what a prolonged period of peace does to people - they forgot how bad it can get, and everything is based on hearsay and past experience of the Veterans.la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-16395473096436694052015-12-04T11:56:00.399+08:002015-12-04T11:56:00.399+08:00LP,

I also think there will be another vet and skeptic, because these are just roles that are filled by different people at different times. la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-89902167360920577182015-12-04T10:21:01.328+08:002015-12-04T10:21:01.328+08:00Hi FD,

I'm sure The Skeptic made a difference too, but she won't be remembered.

It seems to have several connotations, but to each his own interpretation. <br /><br />I am inclined to think that there will be another Veteran and another Skeptic. History seldom changes.

Having say that, it is the little things in life and the magic moments created by using little things, that will pass down our story for generations.<br /><br />I don't need to be remembered.
