I love words...but only when they paint a picture in my mind. Metaphor is a beautiful thing! Textbook writing is cumbersome and forgetable...big words that leave no mental images....blah blah blah!

I must be the exception here.  I am really a word person and not very spatially inclined.  (I'm an English teacher working on becoming a librarian . . . go figure.)  I loved reading textbooks in college and kept many of mine because I thought they were "good reads."  Yes, I am a nerd  :laughing7:

 :cloud9: I learn better from pictures too. I have always maintained that that is why the Lord shows me things in pictures, ie. He has to draw me a picture ain't an exaggeration, LOL. When I pray, and the anointing hits, I see scenes of what He wants me to see, in my mind's eye, so to speak. I have several friends He does this with as well. Blessings...

PS to Fire......please don't hold it against me because I just "talk" out of what's been made life in me.  :sigh:

I like the pictures that words can paint.  Sometimes a real picture doesn't exist for the message to be conveyed, therefore words can become a mental paintbrush.
