There was a night when Paul Revere was out riding his horse for it was just an ordinary night. As he rode his horse named Midnight, he would notice various attributes of the forests for some reason he would need to remember these sights, but at the moment he was just out for a ride trying to clear his head of all the issues that were going on in his community now. He knew somehow that he will be called upon to do something, but did not know what it could be. "Let's go home, Midnight." The two trotting home.

The Old School bus
One day when passing by the old city junk yard there sits an old school bus just rusting away. But when I was walking past it today, I thought I heard laughing and yelling like you do when a working school bus goes down the road, again there was no one around. The laughing and yelling continued. I slowly walked up to the bus and the door opened; no driver but there was a sense of I don't know. I walked down the aisle and heard "Have a seat." I could feel eyes on me. Uh, I opened the door.

The Path to Salvation
The late autumn evening air filled the monk's lungs, but it wasn't the season that chilled his bones. The heavy-handed presence of evil he had sensed upon entering the woods surrounding this mountain village had not bothered to conceal itself from him.

Autonomy Is The Real Privilege
Good morning, freedom-seekers! Today we’re gonna be looking at autonomy. A strange word, I know; one many would probably look at blankly and run away from on sight. We’re gonna figure out what it actually means, consider how it’s achieved, and decipher just how deeply most of us are tangled up in dependence without realising it.

This drabble was so awesome! As a child, I loved the tale of Paul Revere...."Listen, my children, and you shall hear...the midnight tale of Paul Revere...."
Nice drabble taking in a lot of observations in a few words
The way you captured the tension and urgency of that historic night brought the story to life. It’s fascinating how a single ride could alter the course of history, and your vivid descriptions made me feel like I was right there alongside Revere. I appreciate the emphasis on the role of communication and the importance of being prepared in times of crisis. It’s a reminder that even small actions can lead to significant outcomes. Thank you for sharing such an engaging narrative!
