A Picnic Amidst the Hills
Updation of routes is our responsibility
We had chosen to have our picnic amidst the hills. Abraham decided to get assistance from Google for directions. It began directing us. I was enjoying the scenery along the road; Abraham was listening to Google Assistant, and the children were listening to music.
It was a hilly terrain with many branches. Abraham was very careful in following the instructions otherwise we could miss our destination.
Google Assistant gave the final direction, “Your destination is on your right.” And what a surprise; We needed to cross a ditch that separated mountains to reach our destination.
The route needed an updation.

A Kind Exchange
Jacob, holding a jacket, was waiting in line before the cash register. He was homeless and a woman gave him $100 for buying a jacket in cold weather. A woman was setting feeders, diapers, and baby milk tins on the counter. It came to about 170 dollars in total. After going through her bag, the woman hardly found seventy dollars. Reluctantly, she returned one tin of milk but the bill was still $140. Jacob made her a hundred-dollar offer. She accepted the money at his insistence.

Hall of mirrors
Things used to matter, before all the noise. And at that time when things still had meaning, there had been dreaming too, when dreams still mattered. And the brightest dream from those times was full of mountains and seas and smiles and the types of passion that absorbs you the way a dog is absorbed by witnessing something for the first time: with absolute presence, and awe.
