Judging the People Discussion Post
In my opinion, it is inappropriate to state for certain that writing prose at either the closed or open end of the closed form/opened form continuum is better and a writer should use one of them more often. Each form has its own characteristics and is useful in certain contexts. However, a writer may prefer one form to the other according to his favorite writing styles. As for me, I like to write in the open form more than in closed form although I think the closed-form prose is the best choice for formal, analytical and argumentative writings.
Because I have a special passion for creative writing, I am at my best in more open and personal forms. They provide me with the freedom to express my own ideas despite that they may be irregular in nature.

I kept distance from her until one day I happened to walk around in the same corner of a park with her.
She was sitting on the grass crying and talking to herself. It turned out that she knew we hated her and her strange manner was just a way she protected herself and showed us that she was always fine and did not care. In fact, she wanted to befriend with us so much but at the same time she was also hurt by being excluded. After this, I came to realize that the girl was actually very different from what I thought of her before. This also taught me a lesson about judging other people. The fact that a person is not good-looking or behaves a little bit strange does not mean he or she does not deserve others’ respect and …
