Walking on Water by Liz Strauss SAMPLE PAGES

feeling broken, beat-up, and defeated. Now I believed that I could step
out on that path of light and walk on water to the sun. The magic of a
sunset can cure an aching heart, can still a restless mind.
I stayed until the path of light had faded into the water. Then my
dream had run away with the sun to places people do not go.
I gathered up my things. I touched the crate one last time and looked
out at the water under the starry sky. Then I closed up the car, got in,
and turned the key in the ignition. I forgot music for the longest time.
The amazing memory of the path of light kept playing in my mind.
For one timeless moment . . .
I believed that I could walk on water.
The memory is a kindness
that was bestowed on me.
