Authors Note: I wrote about determination because without it you cant succeed.
Many stories have determination as a major theme.
Determination plays a role in many books. Nothing comes easy you have to push
yourself to achieve more. You do that by getting determined to beat whatever
stands in your way. One story that happens is The Lightening Thief gets
determined to get his mother back after he finds out that Hades has her.
Another story that determination is in is Touching Spirit Bear. Almost nothing goes well for Cole or Percy the
only thing that keeps them going is determination.
Percy comes to many places along his travels where he could
give up. Instead he knows to keep going because he needs his mom. The only way
to get her back is to keep going and you have to determined to do that. It is
the hardest thing he has ever done. Wanting something really bad can push you
to do crazy things like fight the god of war. Seems a little crazy but he’s
determined to get his mother back and it made him do something incredible.
Cole has been in some rough places as well. He was mauled by
a bear. He was on deaths doorstep for a week. The doctors didn’t know if he was
going to survive. He had finally found a reason to live before he was mauled
and he was determined to live and would do whatever it takes. To push through
all the injuries he had sustained took an extreme amount of determination.
All in all, determination can help you overcome many
obstacles and plays a huge role in many books. It brings hope by wanting to do
something. Determination can be found in almost every book because something
needs to be resolved and it’s never easy so must things must be overcome.
