What do you see?
Part IV
By Lydia Rachel Stone
What do you see? A campfire. The fire is crackling and popping. Don't step too close or you will be burned.
Mr. Patients and Mrs. Patients are with their daughter Blessing and her husband Perseverance.
Their granddaughter Joy is there. She is a happy little girl and a curious one.
Her eyes are taking in the fire light and she wants to play with it.
"But fire is not your friend little Joy." Perseverance says.
"But why?" Joy asks.
"Well," Her father says "For one it's not alive. Only living things can be your friend Joy."
"Okay Daddy" Joy says meekly.
"For another thing, my Angel," Her father says, "It's very hot. Hot things hurt."
"But Daddy why do hot things hurt?" Joy asks.
"Sweetie," Her father begins, "Hot things burn people. We should stay away from hot things because they will hurt us."
