Nescient Meditation

December 4th, 2011

The following is a short story I published on Literary Snapshot, a website where anyone can submit their literary works that are 100 words or less:

Anna and Hasim were quietly sitting together in the afterlife, watching the sun rise and set simultaneously.

Hasim turned to Anna, noticing the orange sky reflect in her pale eyes. “So what brought you here?”

Anna’s lips cracked a humble grin while she kept her gaze on the horizon. “I accidentally stepped in front of a truck.”

“Accidentally?”

“Yes, I was distracted by thought and was not paying attention to the light.”

“Heavens, what were you thinking about?”

“Being mindful.”
