Hey. I agree essay writing is a difficult thing. Once I had to write an american flag essay for my college. As for me, the most difficult thing is to start a story. An essay always shows not only how well you can write, but also your level of knowledge, understanding of the topic, analytical skills and the ability to organize information from different sources. Fortunately for me, I found a good article on this topic and was able to write my essay from it. The main thing is to find something to catch on. In extreme cases, you can use the help.
