Describing the sky to a blind person The sky which is blue, is something above our heads. No matter how hard we try, it can't be touched. If you travel by plane, you can get a little close to it, but you can't touch it for some scientific reasons. I can't explain them because I've always failed in scientific subjects since primary school. To put it simply, even if I have knowledge about it, it is very complex thing to explain. As you can imagine, the sky is very large area which comprises the sun, the moon, the stars, other planets, and of course somethings we haven't discovered yet. I know, it sounds a bit strange. Even though I can see, it is strange to me too. By the way, there's been a rumor that there is life on other planets. I think it is true. Some people say that, one day UFO's will visit us and take some of us. UFO means Unidentifed Flying Object. I think it is funny. I hope they come and take bad people away. Because sometimes this world can become unbearable, because of bad people. As we speak, the sun is shining in the sky. The sun, which creates the seasons, it is always seen in the morning. On earth, it appears yellow. We can't look at it directly. It can damage the eye. That's why we wear sun-glasses when the sun comes out. Some scientists say that, if you're not on the earth, for example on the moon, it looks white. Anyway, I'm not interested in other planets. Cause I have acrophobia which is fear of heights. We can see the stars only at night. Most of the night, the sky is full of stars. Stars illuminate the sky. After raining, a rainbow appears. The view is always amazing. In winter, it snows. I love winter. I wish you could have seen all those beautiful things. I hope your eye surgery goes well. I'll say a prayer for you. When you start to see, I'll gladly help you to learn all those things. I promise, I will. Just be positive, I believe everything will be great for you!

As we speak, the sun is shining in the sky. The sun, which creates the seasons. [It is the tilt of the earth and the way it is revolving around the sun that is causing it. There is no season on the moon because there is not tilt and does not rotate on its axis] It is always seen in the morning. On earth, it and appears yellow most of the time. We can't cannot look at it directly. It can damage the our eyes. That's This is why we need to wear sunglasses for protection when the sun comes out. Some scientists say stated that, if you're were are not on the earth, for example say on the moon, it looks white. Anyway, I' am not interested in other planets. This is because I have acrophobia ( which is fear of heights). We can see the stars only at night. Most of the night,[They are always there, you just don't see them] The sky is full of stars. Stars illuminate the sky. In the day, [You are describing the night and suddenly you talk about the rainbow. It become illogical. Rainbows do not exist in the night time] after raining, a rainbow may appear depending on the angle of the sun in relation to where you are. The view is always amazing. In winter, it snows. I love winter. I wish you can see could have seen all these beautiful things. I hope your eye surgery goes well. I'll will say a prayer for you. When you start to see all these, I'll will gladly help you to learn all these things. I promise, I will. [I prefer, "I shall be glad to be your guide and help you discover all these wonders."]

Just Be positive, I believe everything will be great for you! [The way you wrote, the encourangement is weak.]

Good essay. I especially like the way you describe things in general and then launched into a personal opinion (about the bad people part)

Describing the sky to a blind person blind at birth. [The blind knows what you are talking if there were not blind before]

The sky which is blue and is something a place of vast emptiness above our heads. No matter how hard we try, it can't cannot be touched. If you travel by plane, you can get a little closer to it, but you can't touch can never be reached. it for some scientific reasons. [it is just emptiness] I can't cannot explain them because I am never good at science, I've always the subject failed in scientific subjects since primary school. To put it simply, even if I know of the reason, have knowledge about it, it is very complex thing difficult for me to explain.

As you can imagine, the sky is very large area which huge containing comprises the sun, the moon, the stars, other planets, and of course somethings we have not discovered yet. [Technically, this is no longer the sky but space or universe. The sky is the area that is limited by our atmosphere. Anything beyond this layer is no longer considered as the sky] I know, that it sounds a bit strange. Even though I can see, it, I cannot touch it. is strange to me too. [The sentence makes no sense because of your use of "Even though"] By the way, there's been a rumor speculation that there is life on other planets. I think it is true. Some people say that, one day UFO's [extraterrestrials]will may visit us and take some of us away. UFO means Unidentifed Flying Object. I think it is funny. I hope they come and take bad people away. Because sometimes This world can become unbearable, because of them bad people.
