HUNDO | 100 WORD CHALLENGE | PROMPT | MENNONITE
Learning
From a chance encounter
I’m always interested in learning about people, although I’m more of an introvert.
Where I live, there are both Amish and Mennonite groups, as well as all the mainstream and a few other fringe religions.
Just about every time I go to Costco, I see some religious people and I’m never sure if they are Amish or Mennonite. They look very similar in dress.
One day, I saw a cute young woman sitting alone, waiting for someone, and asked about her life. We talked until her husband, three times her age, returned. Along with their seven young children.
I question and learn but will not judge.
Thank you for reading my story in response to Crush Publications’s Hundo prompt: Mennonite. Thanks to Crush Hundo Edition for publishing it.
