Beethoven Symphony No.5 (Full Length): Seoul phil Orchestra



I love classical music because it's inspiring.

Plans For The Day

People say 'hope is not a plan' or 'a goal without a plan is just a wish'. It says a lot about all of us who have hopes and dreams but have no idea how to make them a reality. Many articles I've read through my quest to be successful as an author is to write down your goals on paper or post them on social media. One thing I am going to do is take advantage of any opportunity that presents itself. If the door you want open doesn't, find one that is because it will lead you to where you want to go. There are several verses that come to mind about making your dreams a reality. One verse is Habakkuk 2:2 which reads, "Then the Lord answered me and said: "Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it." Another passage with a similar theme is Acts 2:17, "And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,  Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream visions". As someone who gets lost in his thoughts and has to voice them on paper, writing my goals and aspirations keeps me in check and stay on course to reach a certain destination. Remember that when you stumble across my blog.

Spiritual and Emotional Disconnect

I went through these past few weeks on autopilot. It was in those brief moments when I wasn't being assailed by angry customers I asked myself a myriad of questions. One question I asked, "Where am I going? Who do I want to be?" I felt a sea of doubt wash over me as I studied my coworkers who complained about the job, its duties, and the pay. I will refrain from going further because I know what's it like to have holes in one's pockets. The more I came to work and went home I thought about the missed opportunities in life. One thing I am learning is to trust God more and more. After some encouragement I am wanting to know more about the Father's plans for me. So my advice to those of you who are reading this blog don't neglect to plug in the Source of all that is good and the one who redeem what can be good.

In addition to my attempts at trusting God more and more with my life I am close to finishing A Prayer For Murder. It's being edited as we speak and other ideas for the next chapters are swimming in my head. I can't wait to see how the story unfolds and comes to a grand conclusion. I have also come across new ways to promote my books through Goodreads, Pinterest, my site, Kboards, Facebook, and Twitter. There are so my avenues to promote one's books but there are so many resources out there and I'm learning how to use them. Enough of sounding preachy I am pleased to announce that chapters 1-28 are finished and more is on the way. Chapter 29 will include a bt of an emotional uptick that can change everything for the characters. It's best to outline and add in what level of emotion you want to infuse and have readers walk away with.
