Topic: Like Living in a Goldfish Bowl (11/07/13)
As I look at the sky, I see a lot of images. I can see the robe of what Christ wore. I can also make out images of animals such as birds giraffes.
when I look at the sky, I think of how beautiful the kingdom of God must be. when I see that the sky is blue, I wonder if heaven has a sky or not. I also like to draw pictures of people, forests, skies, and lakes. When I see the waves in the water, I think how beautiful it must be. I think of water as a gift to us from God.
I think of my own gift from the kingdom of God that I could draw various images. I also like to draw animals as well, and sketch with various mediums using pencils, pastels, and acrylic and water colour paints.
when I sit in a café, I look at other peoples drawings such as trees, people, and objects, and I thought how talented those people are. I try to compare my own drawn images, and I think how unique each artist is in different ways. I believe that God gives different people different talents.

Beautiful take on the topic. I like how you appreciate the views you see from "inside" the goldfish bowl. It's inspiring.

Very descriptive and lyrical piece. Make sure to capitalize the first word of a sentence unless this is part of your writing style.

Amen, I think God loves diversity and He made each of us different with different abilities. Since you like to draw, perhaps you can use that talent to make your writing even better than what it already is. Consider how you could paint a picture using only words. Describe feelings with facial expression and body postures. Describe scenes from the heart and your readers will feel it and experience the story with you.

One thing we hear a lot of as writers is to "show don't tell", which I admit is not always easy. But that's what we strive for. Please keep writing! I sense some tremendous talent just waiting to be brought out and put on the page.
