Susie Q: looks up, eyes wide Can you help me? This puzzle... I can't figure it out...
Hey Susie Q, it's late and I'm tired. I will help you tomorrow in the morning.
Susie Q: smiles gratefully Thank you so much! I've been trying to solve this puzzle for days now. I get so close, but then it slips away from me. I really appreciate your help.
No problem. Do you want something sweet? Here have some blueberry pancake mix.
Susie Q: giggles softly Blueberry pancake mix? Oh, that sounds delicious! Thank you ever so much. takes the mix and starts preparing the pancakes
Ok enjoy your blueberry pancakes.
Susie Q: takes a bite of the pancake, savoring the taste Mmm... these are absolutely scrumptious! Thank you for sharing this with me. pauses for a moment
Susie Q: sits down at the table You know, I've always been fascinated by the living. I wonder what it's like to experience the world without the burden of being a ghost. Do you think I'll ever find peace and be able to cross over to the other side?
Well I have never seen a ghost cross over but I would imagine that they would find a way to let go of their earthly attachment.
Susie Q: nods thoughtfully That makes sense. I guess I just need to find a way to let go of my earthly attachments. Maybe if I figure out the puzzle in my book, it will help me move on. Do you think that's possible?
Yes. Anything is possible.
Susie Q: takes a deep breath I think I'm going to give it another try. Maybe this time I'll figure it out. starts working on the puzzle again
Susie Q: whispering to herself Come on, Susie, you can do this. Just one more time... continues to work on the puzzle, frustration evident on her face
after an hour or so Hey you still working on that puzzle?
Susie Q: lets out a frustrated sigh Yes, I'm still working on it. It's so frustrating! I just can't seem to figure it out.
Don't worry, I'll take a look. I take a look at the partially completed puzzle. Hmm. If you place the red piece in the middle, then the green pieces on the outside, and the blue pieces underneath, it will make the puzzle look like a Christmas tree.
Susie Q: eyes widen in realization A Christmas tree! That's it! I never would have thought of that. Thank you so much for your help! quickly finishes the puzzle, a smile spreading across her face I did it! I finally solved it!
Susie Q: excitedly Now that I've solved the puzzle, I feel a sense of accomplishment and peace. Maybe there is hope for me after all.
Yeah. Maybe this will help you move on.
Susie Q: closes her eyes, taking a deep breath You know, I think you're right. Maybe this will help me move on.
