Abbigail N Rosewood Writer Menu Skip to content BioJournalPublications Search for: The Little Boat of God July 26, 2013JournalAbbigail Rosewood I laid on the grass today at Emigrant Lake and watched a little sailboat slid peacefully across the water, I thought of how much distance could transform perspective . To me, the boat floated easily on its own, when I could not see its sailor. The further the boat steered away from me, the more it became less of an object and more of a picture. I wondered if God were so far from us that our struggles were rendered invisible to him. In his perspective, perhaps our life looked effortless. And against such a beautiful scenery, it seemed we cannot suffer. The night before graduation June 15, 2013JournalAbbigail Rosewood 1. Sushi was good, but as always, a little expensive. I didn’t look at the check when the waiter brought it to me. Instead, I was thinking about how I wasn’t hungry having had two macaroons and a latte before I came to Umi Sushi. I could always get sushi no matter how stuffed I already was. Because I was alone, I sat at a bench with single chairs.
