Metaphor Assignment From my Writing Class!


              Hey guys so sorry that it's been so long. In a nutshell, my life is crazy busy right now, and is only getting crazier. Haha. But her's a paper i did not a very good friend of mine. His name is not actually Weston, but if you're observant you'll see that he is also a character in my book. So, I used his character name for this paper. I hope you like it, please give me feedback! Have a good week!

Weston
           Weston Scott, the name strong and sound has a powerful presence like that of the rushing water from a waterfall, that falls and thins out into a gentle stream at the bottom of a mighty cliff. The man behind this name leaves an impression you are surely never to forget. His voice speaks in the tone of the unforgettable sound as the water falls and meets the water of the lake below, a sound that will leave you wanting to hear more. Hearing the roar leaves the hair on your arms raised, and if you look closely, leaves goose-bumps in its wake.  His voice strong and sure of the passions that he speaks about, also has a soothing and calming affect…to broken souls in need of help. As you watch the force of the water move down into a stream and start to slow down, you look around wondering what keeps the water at bay. You notice that though the water is powerful and can be quite destructive, it is made safe. The rock formations surrounding the lake and following on both sides of the stream, keeps the water fenced in. Wherever the rock leads, the water follows.
        Like Christ resembles in Weston’s life. He is made strong from the Lord, who leads his life. The water is fenced in, not because it is forced, but because it wants to be. The restriction does not make the water any less powerful or weak. The rushing of the waterfall is like that of the passion in his life to live and lead in Godliness, to serve wherever needed. The slowing of the mighty water, flowing into a gentle stream, is like that of his soft soul from the teaching of the spirit. The way the water flows around and caresses the rocks which sit in the middle, is in the way his blue eyes hold the sincerity of a smile. And in the genuine love and care for the people who sit in the center of his life, and in the students he teaches. The waters strong and gentle like his heart resemble the compassion for a broken world. The way the water is always there, never leaving is like the love for the fellow believers who are the support and encouragement in his life. His loyalty and word always holding true, Weston Scott is like that of the rushing water from a waterfall that slows and thins out into a gentle stream.
