Six Sentence Story: Don’t Rush Through Paradise
Sometimes it is best to slow down, I told a tall, thin gentleman who was sitting at a table with me at the Six Sentence Cafe & Bistro.
Usually it is the fastest way to get anything done right, the gentleman said in agreement.
Of course, those who like to go fast would object, but what do they know? I added.
They know nothing, the gentleman said adding the fourth sentence to our marvelous tale.
After drinking our coffees and eating the croissants I asked him, What should the title of our story be?
He said, Let’s call it: Don’t Rush Through Paradise.

Six Sentence Story: Golden Setting Sun
The wind moves mysteriously like the Spirit holding all together at the table of love.
They met in spring and were married in June. It is autumn when leaves turn. The children and the grandchildren run their many ways.
Right now for one of them the sun is setting. Years from now in splashing golden light it will set for the other.

John 3:8 KJV – 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Trail: That Side of the Railroad Tracks
There are trails through the neighborhoods built into the Fort Mill, South Carolina, rolling hills. There is also a railroad track running through them. This trail is on the other side furthest from where we live.
To get to this trail I have to go under the spooky railroad tracks, but there is a pond awaiting me on the other side.

Proverbs 3:7
Six Sentence Story: Daily Bread
Joe did his best to save his pennies, but considering that pennies weren’t made anymore, he saved his nickels with interest. He didn’t mind inflation as long as he could still buy his daily bread.
But enough of this babbling about pennies (or nickels), because this is supposed to be a story about something real. However, Joe couldn’t think of any story to tell.
He asked his muse to please, pretty please, pretty pretty pretty please, include a story once in a while with his daily bread. His muse, a malnourished pixie, demigod or whatever it might have been, told him to ask Someone who actually had a clue.

Trail: This Side of the Railroad Tracks
There are trails through the neighborhoods built into the Fort Mill, South Carolina, rolling hills. There is also a railroad track running through them. This trail is on the side nearest to where we live, the “this” side of the tracks.
Although the trails are easy often with cement paving they are hilly. Around the pond were a turtle and a beautiful bird who knew I was there but went back to doing what they were doing as I left.
