WHAT DO THE HEAVENLY BODIES TELL ME ABOUT LIFE?

WHAT DO THE HEAVENLY BODIES TELL ME ABOUT LIFE?
When we hear the words “heavenly bodies”, we always think about the moon, the stars, sun planet, galaxy, etc. We are very good in familiarizing it, knowing their functions, purposes or how does they work. Why don't we stop and think for a minute. Have we really realize how they really affect us? Or what are the things that heavenly bodies tell us about our own lives? Everyday we can see the sun shines us, the clouds smiling us, the glowing moon welcome us, the stars are twinkling around us. It is so great to imagine how these things put us in peace and give us secret happiness inside even for a short moment of our lives.
The sun shines in us everyday. It gives life to the living things around us. Just like the sun, my family gives shine to my whole existence. They give me life. They are very important for me. Having a complete and happy family is just like the sun which shines on me everyday. Take a look at the clouds and the sky. Sometimes, I cant deny that every time I watch the blue sky and different forms of clouds, it always makes me wear a smile in my face. The very peaceful sky could melt my problems, it makes me peaceful, emotional, and spiritual. The different forms of the clouds, wow.... I always feel going back to a child, who enjoys watching the movements and and shapes of the clouds. At night, every time go outside during night, the moon always welcomes me. I consider it as one of the factor that may greatly affects my mood of the day. From the busy and hustle word in school, my mind is always set as I am very tired of the long long day. I am very hot tempered and easily get irritated. But as soon as I watch the moon especially during full moons, it makes me feel relax and at ease. I feel that the moon smiles on me and saying, “ don't be sad everything would be fine”. Wow ....it really makes me feel that I am okay and should move on for the next day to come. On the other hand, moon makes me sad also. I don't know why. But it is exactly what I feel. Somehow, it would always be the best. Do you see diamonds spread throughout the the night sky? Yes, stars are like diamonds in the sky. It convey lots of meaning. It makes you feel great that life is so great and glamorous. When there are lots of stars at night, I feel that I don't want to go inside anymore and watch them until the twilight comes. It is very romantic to observe them. It is very peaceful, can bring a smile and a roller coaster of fantasy to your mind. But when stars will not come at night, it would always be so sad. “ Diamonds are hiding”. Just like in our own personal lives, we don't really feel that we are happy at all times. Bad times always come. But no matter would happen, the most important thing is that we know how to face those bad times and is ready to move on and shine for the other days to come.
Our life is like a planet. It revolves and revolves. Sometimes we are up and sometimes we are down. Our life won't be complete if we can only experience happiness in our lives. Through thick and thin, we should stand firm and should know our ways and directions in life. When obstacles and hindrances come, don't give up, it is just a challenge to overcome.

"Everyday we can see the sun shines us, the clouds smiling us, the glowing moon welcome us, the stars are twinkling around us." The sentence can be improved by adding correct prepositions.

Since that sentence is near the beginning of your composition, ensuring that it is grammatical and high-impact is very important. The introduction is always the second thing that readers use to assess whether to continue reading your writing or not.

How about this sentence: "Have we really realize how they really affect us?" This one contains an incorrect verb form for the perfect tense. Remember our lesson on perfect tenses?


Or how about this one: "We are very good in familiarizing it, knowing their functions, purposes or how does they work." I see three weak areas in this sentence. One, "it" refers to a plural noun. Two, "familiarizing it" sounds somewhat awkward; maybe you could improve it by saying instead: "We are familiar with them; we know their functions, purpose, and how they work..." Three, "how does they work" is ungrammatical and can be improved by removing "does."
