Freedom and Refuge

By Rev. Kenneth Gregory Kruschka

These short stories are really an expressive testament, in written sorts, of feelings I'd endured, when a good friend of mine passed away of a heart attack at age 31...she'll always live on within me. This assembly of stories range from funny to frightful, as each character confronts their own separate dilemmas while figuring out the best way to achieve success--mostly, by dealing with situational obstacles head on Jack Grasp's Diner Story is one where the main character (Jack Grasp) uplifts people around him, through the power of conversation. One of Those Days is the tale of a man who just can't seem to catch a break, though he continually tries his best to. Motoya and Rey -a shark and whale story- is a sentimental tale of love and friendship, seen through the eyes of an old whale, a shark, and a human friend they encounter. Ken and Peaches is an old-fashioned love story, where nothing stands in their way. I hope these tales motivate readers to get their own story out in the world too. Enjoy the adventures

Sincerely,
Kenneth G. Kruschka
