A Tale of Love and Loss in Shanghai
Seven years ago, under the gauzy veil of a Shanghai dusk, a man encountered her for the first time beside a narrow alleyway. She was a vendor of floral crimson fruits, which he knew as hawthorns in his native North. Unacquainted with the South's milder climes, he had never imagined such delights flourished here. Newly arrived in the city, loneliness clung to him like the damp mist of the evening drizzle. On that particular eve, her cart brimmed with the vivid hues of ripened fruit, a striking contrast against the muted palette of the rainy twilight. The fragrance of freshly picked hawthorns wafted gently, their allure heightened by her presence—one hand steadying the cart, the other holding an oilskin umbrella. Her posture, poised amidst the pattering rain, struck him as a solitary watercolor, poignant and arresting.

The Secrets of Castile Caves
In the late spring of 1998, when I was a little more than eleven years old, I got myself into the worst trouble you could ever imagine: I fell down in abandoned cave. Well, no one could ever say I was the most graceful student there was (in fact, many people frequently went out of their way to tell me just the opposite). I was also never the most dedicated student either. I goofed off a lot, I slacked on my studies, I drove my teachers up-the-wall crazy with my antics (usually it was deliberate, but sometimes it was accidental).

Enchanted Leaves
Nestled in the cradle of undulating hills, where the morning mist kissed the horizon and the sunrays danced through the canopy, lay a hamlet untouched by the march of time. Its inhabitants, simple folk bound by the thread of shared labor and the solace of communal hearth, lived in symbiosis with the earth that sustained them. Among these souls, as radiant as the first light of dawn, was Amei—an orphaned maiden whose resilience was as formidable as the ancient trees that graced the landscape.

Agnes Bought Jim A Corvette in 1971: Why Didn’t He Get It until 2020
Agnes, a spunky 78-year-Sunflower-State native, surprised everyone in 1971 when she waltzed into a fancy Kansas City Chevy dealership and drove out in a sunshine yellow Corvette Stingray. Agnes, they chuckled, was too old for such a hot rod. But Agnes, with a glint in her eye and a mischievous grin, showed them all. She cruised the dusty Kansas backroads, the wind whipping through her silver hair, determined to let everyone know; age is just a number and speed is sexy at seventy-eight (and up to 100mph).
