Incidents 2

I took an incident in someone life and examined it and wrote the consequence(s) of it. Sometimes more could be said, but I wanted to keep to the immediate results in most situation. The same is true for these stories.
A long time ago I learned the phrase “a willing suspension of disbelief”. I’m sure it was mentioned in regard to movies. Basically it says that if you can believe in what you are seeing, you will enjoy it more. Women seem to be able to do that more easily than men. Children can do it best. The same is true of written stories. Sometimes you want to know more, but like real life, you almost never get the complete story. However, you always have the option to make up your own continuation of the story.
I like short stories, especially one or two page ones. They leave the reader with just enough information to use his own imagination to fill in the details however he likes.
The two stories “Baptism” and ‘Peanuts” are apocrypha from my youth.
