Greg woke up, still not knowing what he wanted to do with his life. The last few weeks he had been sitting on the coach watching tv, just waiting for something to do with his life. "Today is the day." He thought to himself. He got dressed and headed out into the city to find his calling. He walked for hours around the city finding nothing but a Help Wanted sign on a hot dog stand. He bought a hotdog but was not interested in helping.
After walking a couple more blocks he decided to take a break and slipped into a museum. He loved the paintings and wondered if he should beomce a painter, but then he stopped. He saw the most beautiful painting of a fire burning down a building. He couldnt stop thinking about it. He stood there for an hour and thought, "I want to be a firefighter."Gregs life was changed.

Maggie,
ReplyDeleteI really like this! I like how a beautiful painting changed Greg's life.
unbelievable. That's if I were to say that I was looking at a painting of a plumber and said"hmm.. now that I have seen this fat old man with his crack showing, I know what my duty in life is.
