  13. Flashes of red and pink were dancing in the corners of her eyes, filling her with a strange and impossible hope. For too long, she had simply stood and watched like this. How many years had she spent, praying and wishing and trying until her bones ached, looking to the skies for an answer? But now that the moment was here, was it worth taking a chance? Or was she really going to spend another lifetime waiting?
    No… she refused to wait any longer. If there were going to be any miracles today, they would be wrought by her hands, clenched in determined fists.

    And this time, as diamonds sparked to life within her, she believed it.

  29. What the hell, I thought. This is the exact same word! I couldn’t believe it. Is it always the same word? Everything I knew was a lie. I tried to make up for it– refreshing, deleting my history, but nothing would work. All I wanted to do was write another thing. All I wanted to do…… was become……….. determined.

  31. a want, no a need that needs fulfilment, something that make you push forward, a sense of responsibility to finish something, to reach that goal, to put all things that will come in the way of halting you aside

  32. A paradox. To move toward a goal without rest, perhaps. Which means to have set ones mind to a task, to an interpretation, to an end justifying the means. To have placed before you one thing that shall direct, and to thereby announce that that single thing holds more importance than all others. To be undeterred, as it were.

    Yet, undeterred from what? Is it not the same to say that all the other things had focused you on your one? Is any event a singularity, apart from all influence? Of course not. It is a process of focusing, a reducing. Like a funnel in which you swirl, and would have headed in any of those lovely tangents, were it not for the walls. Which, to you, deterred. Plunk, down the middle, your mind.

  33. Such a fluid concept to put into place, when it should be rock hard. Determination and discipline and vision and you can do anything…or, you know, you could veg out on the couch for an hour, maybe just half an hour and shut out the world, and have another day slip by, moving you further from your dreams and vision.

  34. Who would believe that this could happen? In my understanding of the world you work to achieve goals, and am determined to get where I plan to go by working hard. Having this fall into my lap with asking for it seems odd. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop to balance this fortune, when something I love and value and rely on, like coffee, is wrenched away by fickle fate and becomes out of reach.

  35. I was determined to write something fantastic in here and show off my skills as a wordsmith to my coworker and friend KC. Unfortunately I didn’t fancy taking a crack at this particular word and thus tried to reload the page in the hope that I might find myself faced with a more inspiring one. No luck.

  37. She was never more determined to succeed than in this moment. Looking out across the room she knew that despite all the trouble she had made the right choice. She could never regret that now.
    One by one, they stood. But she wouldn’t back down. Not now, not when she’d come this far. It was now or never.

  38. I like words

  39. I was determined to get the truth, no matter what. I had invested all my money in the hotel business, that I had inherited from my father, we were told because of some irregularities that have surface during a routine inspection, that I stand to loose everything.

  40. Amazingly enough, being determined can overcome peoples fears and failures. SImply being determined allows for incredible things to occur, such as a cat who cannot swim and has a fear of water to catch the fish in the sea.
