Helen Glenkerry shook her hair back, scooping it up into a ponytail and fastening it with a lace from her sandal lying on the bank. The water in the burn was icy cold and crystal clear. Rolling her white cotton trouser legs up, she pushed some pebbles along the sandy bottom with her toes as the grasses caressed her feet. Closing her eyes and breathing the cool clear air deeply, she knew she would love living here. The horse stood like a statue as James Mcklinross watched the girl. What was she doing here and where had she come from? There was danger here; she would have to go. He walked his horse to the edge of the burn. As she turned and saw him, he blinked; he thought she was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen. His voice sounded stern: ‘Where do you think you are going and where have you come from? Don’t you know you are trespassing?’
It is amazing to me, the stories you will hear if you just stand still. There is a story in everything-every piece of life, every fragment of time, every emotion, every breath. Life is a journey of trial and triumph, tragedy and beauty. Yet through it all there's a thread of human existence, linking us all regardless of race, age, gender, or beliefs. Threads of Truth is a collection of five short stories that follows five unique characters-a weeping willow tree, an archeologist, a rocket scientist, an agnostic journalist, and a dying veteran-each trying to understand the presence of unnecessary tragedy; the perception of life as a journey filled with mysterious, unexpected twists; the role of faith; and ultimately what is truth. These stories will challenge readers to investigate the imperfections of mankind and discover the beautiful potential that exists. Pat Piccolo brings these very real and relatable characters to life through a compilation of short yet emotionally engaging tales.
