The wheels on the bus go round and round...This story was short, but it definitely got its point across-all-in-all, it was really good, short but sweet. It basically describes a woman's long daily journey to work, from NYC to...some town in the middle of nowhere. The trip is four hours (imagine doing that everyday,) but the people she meets along the way are what make it so interesting. One day on the trip, she meets a woman named Jewel, who goes on and on about life events. It bores the author to death, but she still sits by Jewel and lets her rant. At the end of the story, Jewel realizes that it is the ranting that saved her, but the author says that she wasn't even listening that whole time. Jewel saved HERSELF. That's what I liked about the story-the message-the fact that Jewel had the chance to save herself, even after dealing with this drama for all those years. I'd like to see more stories like this in the future.
