The magnum question is how I am writing a story. How do I write scene by scene? How am I coming up with a scenario and building the story? How is the flow story? How I have an idea for a story. How did I have the vision to build the characters? The question is how...how...how... I was advised in my beginning stage to write a magnum story, which is to read books and be inspired by how a story is told. I did not write for a story to be told, a story to experience, a story to live for; I wrote a story to risk for. I headed to many bookshops and flipped many books to visualise how a story would be shown. I tried multiple times to read different genres and versions of books. Nothing triggers my heart. They all have fabulous stories, but I could not be influenced by any of them. I flip from the first to the second page. I end up closing the books and walking off. I sense myself not having the ingenuity to write a story. I stopped seeking what was outside but what was inside me. To me, stories need to live in every soul's heart. I asked myself what inspired me to look for a story. Where to begin and how to end. If a story is to be written based on real life, what criteria should be examined for? What is my style of writing? I kept digging into it.

I remember I had inspirational figures behind the glass cabinet with me. The moving figures speak to me. I look at them; there is a superhero, a villain, and a fighter. I look at each of their stories and how they are brought up. The rise of a superhero story, the emergence of a falling villain, and the fighter to battle for faith. I distinguished each of them, but when I walked a few steps back, looking at the whole picture of the figures, I saw a story to risk for. The epic story could always be behind the glass I collected for decades. I see that every perspective story has a timeline. A touch of the past, present and future. My identity is to be defined as a loser in every battle against the time I stepped into. I was no match to down my knees. My will had been tormented, yet I knew I was alive and breathing. I pronounce to stand up to master the time. I became nonlinear. I shift the time from the present to the past, heading to the future. I urge myself to conquer all the timelines so one past determines the present for an action to the future. A hero will battle with a villain with various timelines for a fight to have an answer for the faith. The question is whether the hero is a villain or the villain is a hero. The breakthrough lies in the quest for faith.
