Easier
Louise Krug

Two men on bikes, wearing the usual things, came by today, my husband said. I stepped outside when they knocked. I wouldn't let them in the house. No one should, I said. We were having a beer together, and I was ready to laugh. I ended up praying with them, my husband said. They gave me a card, and I read the part highlighted in yellow. We all bowed our heads. I figured that was easier.
