So far, I like this much more than the typical view of Frankenstein’s monster. This monster is just like a person, but he is simply misunderstood. He is like a child who has been forced to learn everything own his own, and yet he has succeeded in this. He is actually somewhat wise, regardless of his lack of typical education. I enjoy his ability to speak, this has made the book so much better. I love the monster, and think that Hollywood had one thing right. Frankenstein is a monster. Not the monster, but the man.

I do not get attached too much, and, as much as I hate it, I don’t have burning passions for anything. It isn’t that I don’t care. It is just that I had a rough time for a good portion of my life, so I am emotionally calloused. I DO, however, have passion for God. I plan to dedicate much of my time to mission trips in not so far off years, for example. I wish I was more dedicated to other things, but he is the only one who has gotten through to me and through him, I care for others. I feel defensive of others in ways that I do not for myself. There has only been one case in my life where I almost was in a fight, and it was in defense of another. The only reason I wasn’t in that fight is that I have difficulty being mean to anyone, even those who I think deserve it.

It is dominant in our society. We dress, ace, eat, walk, and even wash ourselves in ways that will make us more beautiful. We do so much to focus on our outer beauty, and most all know it is wrong. The thing is, we LIKE it. No matter how much girls complain about doing makeup, they do it because they feel better about themselves, and so they like it. Even if they had a man who didn’t care how they looked, they would still work to make themselves beautiful, so they can feel beautiful.
