Difference between a writer and one who writes

The difference between a writer and someone who write (or wrote) is not the length of the writing or the quality of the book cover. It is not what they have to say, or how much experience they've got. Everybody's got experience. Recently, a 12year old girl stunned me when in the middle of a friendly conversation, she said, "whenever I think about my past..." And I was like "sorry, come again please".

How that the first thing God spoke to being was LIGHT, and how I wondered, Why light? How my question led me to a revelation of God's purpose for making light the first thing to be. How I came to realize that God himself is Light and so, it deems him fit to create his nature and character. Selah!
