Signpost or Discourse structure

Signpost or Discourse Structure Think of it like a roadmap for your writing or speech before the reader or listener: Speakers and writers use special techniques (called signposts) to guide their audience through their argument or message.

16| A Blessing in Disguise that Taught me a lot Nobody welcomes misfortunes in his scheduled way of life, yet they do occur and keep teaching us the most valuable lessons that remain as shields throughout our onward journey of life. It is a fact that we are unable to appraise the innumerable blessings that God has bestowed upon us. We are unable to taste the real worth of safety without facing any calamity.  We cannot help undergoing these unusual happenings around us. None of us can control such circumstances to avoid any accident, which is scheduled by the supreme power for us.   One day early in the morning I was on my way to deliver my first lecture very comfortably. I had no hurry because I would reach the class in time. There was no crowd and traffic was going on smoothly. I couldn't expect any mishaps anywhere. Mostly we observe the accidents on the road,  thinking that they don't belong to us. However, we become a spectacle for others.  Once I happened to b...
