Samaritan Stories

A boy trying to find himself in the shadow of his family. A girl living in the woods with a baby that is not hers. Zacary Holden has decided he wants his inheritance, and he wants it now. But everything goes down hill when he runs out of money and is beaten and left for dead in the woods. The rebellious woman haunts the woods taking from the rich to help her and her daughter survive. But her tender heart cannot leave anyone behind. The Prodigal Son meets the Good Samaritan in a Robin Hood style tale of two lost people running back home. (Previously named Home)

After that day we never saw uncle Andries again. It was sad, but people forget quickly and Uncle Andries was just a legend. The good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37)

August, 2015 The Machine is gone. At least, she has been for 3 months. While enjoying his kinda vacation, John is beginning to notice the effects her absence is having on his world. And it's not good. Finch is waking him earlier and earlier, obsessed with discovering a way to open his briefcase and rebuild the Machine. The circles beneath his eyes are a testament to his obvious lack of sleep. Root is desperate. Without the Machine in her ear, her only report on the outside world comes from Fusco, who hasn't been shelled up in their hideout for 3 months. Without Shaw by her side, nobody can keep her calm. New York is battleground. Samaritan has allowed chaos to ensue: an unofficial cleansing that doesn't seem to be working. Without Elias or the Brotherhood at the head, crime is at a peak, and bodies are arriving in the morgue daily. Until the Machine manages to send one fateful message from its compressed prison: the number of Anna Markham. Book 3 in The Stone Chronicles. Sequel to Double Ode and MED.

In this short fable a scared and innocent bird learns not to predetermine other's hearts by their appearances. A beauty might be too vain to care, and a savage might truly have kind heart.

This is a short story about a normal family trip in the African Savannah, that turned into a rush for civilization. This story is based on a real event, and has been modified to protect the identities of those involved. It's a real life good Samaritan story, featuring an act of kindness that truly saved someone's life. This was written for the southwest contest.

December 16   GOOD SAMARITAN PIE     The meal prepared from my cognition, the bread and jam of humility, salad of expectation, roast of determination and Good Samaritan pie, wait on the table to be devoured.  The courses pass and come dessert my kindly intentions are cut to wedges and pushed from setting to setting.  I can, with dollop after dollop, cover the requisite desires of this tart in an attempt to deny my addiction to fixing or I can serve up the plain truth.  I help and help and wander down roads looking for lost puppies to return to their homes.  I must admit my longing to lend support is sometimes half-baked, and if kept to home and hearth it might serve me better and make a sweeter dish.  Assistance is best in proportion to the meal.  I must live my life and save my pie till last.   Hold each other's hands but explore. * Touch Your Toes Funny how we deal with feet. I have seen a woman cradle hers and treat it like the dearest babe.   I know some folks who shun their feet; can barely stand to think of them, let alone to touch them.   There are the Mani-Pedi people who leave it in the hands of others. I met a guy who soaks them soft and tucks little bits of cotton under the corners of his nails.   I know too, the woman with the snarling crusty dogs that serve to others as a warning.   My grandma warns me not complain about my shoes lest I meet the man who has no feet, but I doubt I would fit in his.   Vlog:  http://youtu.be/7eUgwQQ5ZPI You are reading selections from Sober on the Way to Sane and More Lines From My Life by Sherrie Theriault

No... I know it seems weird, to start on a negative note, that is a big fat "NO", but as most stories, this isn't the one, on how to be a Good Samaritan, in fact it's one of the incidents that made my inner self realise how good of a Samaritan I was, or I could have been. Majorly I talked about how lying, or creating certain mistakes, or regretting certain decisions haunts you for a really long period of time, it may even make you suffer through insomnia, no appetite, overthinking, and much more. Once you realise how easy it is to focus only on yourself, no one in this entire world could ever beat you, or defeat you, and you could finally get to know, about how life isn't just considering what other people think, but also about how you think and see yourself as in the Future! Hope you enjoy this short story.
