WRITING OBSTACLE

Describe the wisest person you know in a short story about them.

Your description should subtly tell us why you think they are wise. You could weave this into a story, or write a descriptive paragraph, but try to be creative with the way you portray this person, instead of telling us facts about them.

The Wisest Person

I think the wisest person would be who had been through most. Thick and thin. Their experiences that changed them. Not the one with most academical knowledge but the one with knowledge of life. The one who understands your thoughts and feelings, who is kind and caring.

I think the wisest person is the kindest person.

Hi. This is really good, you explain things people take hours to explain in a paragraph. And it all makes sense.

Although I agree, this prompt is trying to get you to subtly bring these points to life. It’s easy to say that, but trying to describe that in a not so subtle way would have been handy to push you out of your comfort zone.
