Writing Activity 1

Hello!

Writing is a process. Let's start with the first step; deciding what to write about and making an outline.

What's an outline? A plan to gide you to composing your first draft or the first time you will write a piece (of description, in this case).

So let's find a suitable topic. How about, 'A Flower'? Remember the first skill in description is naming the subject. So, what could we write about a flower? Let's jot down the ideas.

Its colour/color,
what type of flower it is,
where it originates from,
its scent, height,
what bugs feed on it,
where in the world can it be found,
how to plant it.

And these are all factual information. However, you could get personal/subjective and note things such as:

how the flower makes you feel,
what it reminds you of, what
it symbolises,

Or you could get philosophical and think about:

lessons the flower reminds you of,
moral/rhetoric associated with that flower,
any profound relaization that observing this flower has caused you to think about.

Now you try this Activity:

Generate some ideas about the following topics for practice.

1). The Waves at Sea

2). The Beautiful One

3). Fishing in a River

4). Lost at Sea

5). Dancing in the City

We'll continue in the next lesson.

For Fun and Health

Everyone, these days, is afraid of getting a huge gut. 😊 And of course we all understand why, right? Well, huge stomachs, unless you are pregnant, are associated with poor health, right? Sometimes when I'm walking on the road, and I see people with huge stomachs, I wonder how they got those really, big bellies. I have heard that drinking a lot of beer regularly can cause you to get a big belly. I have heard eating late at nights, and then going to sleep does the same thing. Even lack of activity is said to be a culprit. And maybe these are all legitimate causes. But recently, I discovered another culprit for a big gut. I bet you will never guess what. Seriously, you would never think about this one. Let me give you some time to wrack your brain 😁😁😁😁😁😁. Here it is.....your belly is full of sh_t. Yep. It appears that if you haven't done a detox, especially a colon cleanse in a while, your intestine is packed, and loaded with all that excess baggage. If you have a tummy,...

You are Special

What makes something valuable? Scarcity. Why? Because if something is not easily found anywhere, it is rare and therefore worth more than what is commonly or easily found. It’s just like diamonds or a rare coin, because it is hard to find, it is valued. Things are even more valuable when they are one of a kind . Now suppose you made something very unique, so unique, there was no other thing like it. And suppose you loved it very much, because it was beautiful or very useful. Would you throw it away? Would you allow this thing that is the only one of its kind to disappear forever? Would you not try to save it? Would you not try to keep it from being lost? Wouldn’t you protect it? You are valuable. You are one of a kind . You are so unique, the re is no other like you in any form, anywhere . Your DNA is original; not a copy of anyone else. And your designer, God, does not like copies and that’s why you are not a copy. And this is why you are valuable to him , and h...
