How do you plan your goals?

My objective is to write a manuscript and get it published. I’m still working on my goal.

The first crucial step is to write the rough draft, which is done.

Now, I’m in the editing stage and halfway through draft 5, planning to do three more revision drafts. I’m focusing on my plot and creating engaging characters by learning new techniques and skills to make my novel gripping and a rememberable reading experience. That is my goal.

There are times I’m ecstatic about the process I’m making. Other times, I want to cry myself to sleep because I’m so overwhelmed by the process.

Why do I write?

I love to write.

Jurassic Park book review 08-17-2023

“A couple of months ago, I finished reading Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton which was released November 20th, 1990. I have watched the movie Jurassic Park multiple times. I decided to read the novel. It was a fascinating read! I enjoyed the story because the plot was action-packed and suspenseful.

A couple of months ago, I finished reading Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton which was released November 20th, 1990. I have watched the movie Jurassic Park multiple times. I decided to read the novel. It was a fascinating read! I enjoyed the story because the plot was action-packed and suspenseful. The characters were engaging, the thought-provoking theme was examining life and choices.

If you are a fan of the movie Jurassic Park, I highly recommend reading the novel. It is a fabulously written story full of action and wonderfully developed characters. I pondered about life and nature and our role as the human race on this planet.

I remembered the novel was an immense success when it was first released in the early 90s; it seemed like everybody was talking about Jurassic Park. It was so unique and ahead of its time to discuss DNA.

Society’s initial understanding of DNA and the possibilities that science could figure out the potential of DNA. By unlocking DNA’s secrets, not only for humanity but for all Earth’s creatures.

The novel and movie showed the dangers of misusing DNA, society could create something dangerous with unintended effects on the world.

The movie was released in 93, people who read the novel despised the movie. Absolutely hated it with passion. I didn’t understand why, and now after reading the novel, I do.

The novel had two themes. How much power we give to the scientific community and corporations to create things we know nothing about, the possible impact of these creations on the earth and our society?

The second theme discussed was life will always survive on the planet. Even long after, humanity is extinct.

These themes made the storytelling much more interesting, gripping and made me ponder the story after I finished reading it.

Jurassic Park’s plot was about surviving dinosaurs, but it was also a novel about choices about what should and shouldn’t create and the affects of our choices on society and the planet.

What is our role on this planet as individuals and as humanity?

Jurassic Park is about choices, responsibility, decisions, and most importantly living with our seen and unseen consequences.

“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭51‬:‭10‬ ‭ESV‬‬

A few weeks ago, I found myself getting a bad case of the blues.

I didn’t understand why. I was wanting things I couldn’t have. Why was this happening to me?

I lost my focus and became caught up in the things of this world.

My focus was on the world instead looking up towards heaven. I don’t know how this happened. But it did.

That lesson taught me as a Christian, I must guard my thoughts and to keep my focus on Christ. That sin can easily creep into my thoughts and my life.

As Christians, we need to be reading the Word and praying daily, live for the Lord, and be vigilant against sin.
