AN OVERVIEW OF ENGI(O)SOPHY - Written by Mr. Ben and Reviewed by Alex Andy Phuong

English is a pretty complex language.  In fact, many people who do not speak English fluently could struggle with that language barrier.  Nevertheless, English itself is one of the most interesting languages because it directly connects with abstract thinking.  That is one of the compelling ideas that Mr. Ben explores in "AN OVERVIEW OF ENGI(O)SOPHY."

Throughout this publication, Mr. Ben utilizes a variety of concepts as he explores the topic he has written about.  Specifically, this very original and elevated idea involves a plethora of deep thoughts that covers Engineering, Creativity, Philosophy, and Wisdom.  All of these abstract ideas are very hard to fathom, but Mr. Ben has proven that higher level thinking is vital to the betterment of the modern world.

Change is the only constant, but the ones willing to accept modernity can cope with reality!

"Santa in Two Worlds" - A Review of the Screenplay by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Santa Claus is an iconic holiday character.  His jolly persona oftentimes brings holiday cheer despite the bleakness of reality.  Nevertheless, this beloved figure does have humanistic qualities even though he is supposedly magical.  That is one of the main ideas of the screenplay adaptation of Santa in Two Worlds by Mr. Ben.

Since Mr. Ben oftentimes incorporates Christian theology into his writing, this screenplay focuses on the sin of pride as it relates to human behavior.  In fact, pride directly connects with the strength of a man.  Santa Claus might be a fictional being, but this screenplay reveals how overcoming challenges can help people in the real world experience enlightenment.

Cheers to the ones who bring merriment to an otherwise dismal reality!

Awaken - A Review of "Wake Up Dream Boy!" by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Many people idolize celebrities.  Nevertheless, sometimes people forget that Hollywood glamour really is artificial fantasy (for the most part).  Furthermore, cinematic splendor could sometimes result in audiences losing their connection to reality.  That is part of the reason why Wake Up Dream Boy! by Mr. Ben would make a great feature film.

Films about celebrities oftentimes do more than simply feature celebrities.  That is because films about show business have a meta-fictional element to such compelling cinema.  Within the screenplay that Mr. Ben had written, Tom eventually has to realize that "Celebrity Timeout!" really is nothing more than a  superficial show.  That is a major reality check for anyone who watches too much stuff on screens.

La La Land might have revealed that the real world is not a magical "La La Land," but this screenplay can help people snap out of fantasy, and hopefully connect to reality!

The Inspiration- Driven Ideological Discoveries (I-DIDs) by Mr. Ben - A Review by Alex Andy Phuong

Sometimes publications attempt to redefine what could be written.  In fact, the invention of new words and phrases reveals the dynamic nature of the English language.  Since writing could literally involve anything that could be written, that is why The Inspiration- Driven Ideological Discoveries (I-DIDs) by Mr. Ben is such a unique text.

Within this written work, Mr. Ben explores very bold and complex topics.  For example, he writes about "ENGI(O)SOPHY."  As the text continues, Mr. Ben delves deeper into highly intellectual and somewhat philosophical concepts, such as "The Ideology of True Existence of Humanity."  This publication proves that Mr. Ben is a brilliant as this particular publication proves that what he writes could radicalize the literary landscape.

Cheers to Mr. Ben for having a unique writing style all his own!

Modern Sexuality - A Review of "Come to Think of It, Sex!" by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Fifty Shades of Grey shook the publication world and Hollywood because of its racy story.  Nevertheless, censorship is starting to lose control over what is permissible on the printed page and the silver screen.  Furthermore, people are nowadays more open to different orientations within the sexuality spectrum.  That also applies to the mature publication Come to Think of It, Sex by Mr. Ben.

Even though this text is more adult-oriented, it still offers a compelling narrative as it deals with taboo subjects.  The narrative also reveals how the human brain truly is the most powerful sex organ.  That is because sometimes people would claim that they "accidentally" impregnated a woman, or contracted an STD, but that was truly because of losing self-control over personal sexual desire.  Finally, this text is riveting as it delves deep into human sexuality within modernity.

Maybe one must be careful when reading this...

One Man Deep Words - A Review of the Screenplay by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

There is the famous notion that one man can truly change the world around him.  Indeed, being a force of nature can help make the world a better place.  Some students would even admire and respect the educators that make them the more learned beings they are at this current moment.  That is part of the reason why the screenplay One Man Deep Words by Mr. Ben would make a great feature film.

Within this script, Mr. Griffins does more than simply teach.  He inspires his students with deep words and philosophical ideas.  This fictional teacher is actually similar to the role that Robin Williams had played in the seminal classic Dead Poets Society.  These elements help solidify the idea that a man with deep words can truly benefit the world around him.

Please do consider filming this screenplay because one man can really change everything!

Experience - A Review of the Screenplay by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Experience has been called the ultimate educator.  Indeed, living and learning truly do go hand-in-hand.  Because of the empowering qualities of experience, it is no surprise that a screenplay entitled, Experience would be so compelling.  That is the case of the screenplay by Mr. Ben.

Beginning with narration, and progresses towards a powerful conclusion, this screenplay really could be a fabulous feature film.  The themes within the narrative are universal, and a possible film could inspire audiences who were to watch such a movie.  Movies might offer an escape from reality, but experiences in real life are essentially for helping people live to their full potential.

Cinema might be artificial, but this screenplay could really be inspirational!

The Long Walk to Destiny - A Review of the Screenplay by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Destiny has a unique sense of ambiguity to it.  Some would argue that things happen for a reason.  Others would assert that reality is simply the way it is.  Nevertheless, life involves undertaking the journey until the ultimate ending.  That notion is part of the reason why the screenplay The Long Walk to Destiny by Mr. Ben is so compelling.

As the plot follows the life of Maya, and the people in her life, the plot delves deep into the subjective nature of reality.  As the story progresses to a satisfying conclusion, the screenplay displays the idea of becoming what one was meant to be through cinematic splendor.  Indeed, this screenplay is a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit as Maya discovers her true identity.

Please do try to take "the long walk to destiny" (pun intended)!

God's Love Towards His People by Mr. Ben - A Review by Alex Andy Phuong

Christians would spread love towards as others just like how God spreads love across all that exists.  Indeed, love is both powerful and palpable as compassion and understanding help make the world a better place.  Mr. Ben is a skilled author because of his own love for writing as a craft.  God's Love Towards His People is a great example of how love really is a special gift within life itself.

Through a series of Christian short stories, this collection reveals a lot about how religion can influences the actions that people take.  A central idea within this publication is giving back to God while also finding God's love.  In fact, love permeates throughout this entire text as Mr. Ben puts in time and love to craft compelling short stories.  This book really is a testament to the fact that love truly does endure.

God's Love Towards His People is as undeniable as the love that God does have towards His people!

The Christian Matrix - A Collection of Short Stories by Mr. Ben Reviewed by Alex Andy Phuong

The Matrix might be a popular modern film, but The Christian Matrix is an outstanding collection of short stories from Mr. Be.  Within each narrative, the stories play out like parables as the characters learn more about life, Christian theology, and most importantly, themselves.  Indeed, identity is a prevalent theme that permeates throughout this publication, especially the relationships that people share with the Heavenly Father.

The choice to live life in the Name of the Father truly is the matrix of human life!

"The Broken Mirror" (I) The Foreign Version - As Written by Mr. Ben and Reviewed by Alex Andy Phuong

The Broken Mirror is a great example of how Mr. Ben combines drama with Christian theology to create a compelling narrative.  Sometimes relationships do turn sour, but that is a powerful life lesson that everyone has to learn (whether or not they have fallen in love).  It is also amazing how the "Foreign Version" of this great publication still upholds the fundamental themes that this timeless (and sometimes tragic) story explores.

The foreign version might differ from the original version, but this foreign version ripples with raw intensity.  The characters are still universal even though the idea of being "foreign" comes into play within this re-imagining of the firstly published edition.  Mr. Ben also demonstrates his versatility as an author by reinventing a story that he had already published previously.  That definitely demonstrates his dexterity!

June 9, 1948 really was no ordinary day!

After the Wedding and the Honeymoon - A Review of "A Successful Marriage" by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Usually after people fall in love, they marry, have children, and (supposedly) live happily ever after.  Nevertheless, the gritty reality is that some marriages do (unfortunately) fall apart.  That could result in divorce, threats, or even death.  Luckily, Mr. Ben provides insight into how to help love endure with his published work entitled, A Successful Marriage.

Throughout this publication, Mr. Ben focuses upon two pillars to assuage the fear of marriage falling apart.  Those two pillars are...

1. Trust

and

2. Communication

He also discusses life skills essential to increasing the longevity of a marriage.  Topics include: Financial Dependability, Educational Proficiency, and perhaps the most important topic of all, Spirituality.

Open and honest communication is also important because marriages built upon secrets and lies (usually) do fall apart.

It is not enough to just "like" someone; marriage involves quite a bit of maturity, and not just romantic infatuation.

Learning From Mistakes - A Review of 7 Mistakes Christians Make and the Benediction by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

 

A common misconception about Christians is the notion that those people behave like holy saints.  Nevertheless, the reality is that even devoutly religious people are still filthy creatures by default.  Sometimes people also forget that human beings are mammals that have to share the planet with the rest of the animal kingdom.  Fortunately, Mr. Ben addresses seven mistakes that Christians make while also offer suggestions as to how to avoid making such errors.

This written publication provides a lot of insight into what it means to be human, and not just Christian.  There are seven chapters that directly address mistakes that Christians make, including "Discrediting 'Spiritual Fathers'" and "Spiritual Prostitution."  Even though those mistakes might sound graphic, there are truly some Christians in real life who truly struggle with their faith.  Luckily, Mr. Ben also provides five premises in order to assuage guilt associated with the seven mistakes that Christians make as to how Mr. Ben discusses such faux pas.

Hopefully this text that Mr. Ben had written will provide guidance as well as function as a gift bestowed upon anyone struggling with sin and guilt while simultaneously striving for redemption and salvation!

The Blueprint - An Alex Andy Phuong Review of the Screenplay by Mr. Ben

Different people have differing opinions about how the world came about.  Some might believe in religious divinity, creationism, or even have a scientific approach as to how Earth had formed.  Nevertheless, that is one of the major philosophical questions that have plagued scholars and researchers even within the modern era.  No matter the opinion, or the reality of the real world, many would attempt to answer what that unknown beginning is.  That major mystery forms the basis for The Blueprint by Mr. Ben.

This screenplay is incredible!  Mr. Ben employs Christian theology to propose a reason for what people could live for, and why people are even part of reality (whatever that may be).  The screenplay is actually a lot like the Book of Genesis that begins the Holy Bible.  Furthermore, the plot is very cinematic, and even has a somewhat magical quality.  This script could form the basis for a compelling motion picture intended for not just religious audiences, but also general audiences.

Before implementing a plan, a blueprint is essential to create a better future!

Are You Saved - A Review of the Play by Mr. Ben Reviewed by Alex Andy Phuong

Salvation is a major tenet within Christianity.  Indeed, mortal beings oftentimes turn to the Heavenly Father for the sake of mercy upon their own souls.  Mr. Ben beautifully incorporates Christian theology into his dramatic work, and one of the best is the stage play Are You Saved (Yes, I Am).

Filled with brotherhood and love, this work of drama is undeniable.  The play delves deep into Christian religious beliefs while also appealing to a wide audience.  The narrative contains prayers as well as the love of fellow human beings.  Furthermore, the story offers hope while also reminding audiences to express gratitude.  Finally, the play reveals how saving others is just as important as saving oneself from the depths of despair.

Sometimes the best way to know about whether or not someone has been saved is to look deep into the heart and soul in order to finally become whole.

Insatiable - A Review of What Should We Crave by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Part of human nature is seeking fulfillment.  Sometimes people might experience emptiness.  Others have issues with controlling their desires.  Nevertheless, cravings can create complications, and lust and gluttony are two of the seven deadly sins.  The nature of what people should crave, rather than what they want to crave for, forms the basis of What Should We Crave by Mr. Ben.

Narrated via seven chapters, this novel plays out like a set of seven positive behaviors that negate the seven deadly sins within Christian theology.  In fact, each chapter represents a positive step towards a brighter future.  For example, this text reveals the power of influence, the need for a sense of belonging, and the true nature of what intelligence really is.  Because of these hopeful ideas, the novel basically embodies virtues that could allow good to overpower evil.  Indeed, this novel is like a ray of hope for anyone wallowing in despair.

No need for remorse; just stay on course!

Moving On - A Review of the Play by Mr. Ben Entitled What Are We Leaving Behind by Alex Andy Phuong

One of the toughest facts of life is that it is impossible to change the past.  Furthermore, change is the only constant.  Nevertheless, people do have the choice to leave behind their former lives to strive for a better future.  That is one of the compelling themes that Mr. Ben explores in his stage play What Are We Leaving Behind.

Written from a Christian perspective, this play reveals harsh truths about reality.  For example, James is an independent man, but he is still fundamentally human.  In real life, sometimes people do forget that they are mammals within the animal kingdom.  Additionally, the play reveals how there are restrictions and responsibilities associated with independence.  Fools would assume that they could do whatever they want when they become adults, but real adults hold themselves accountable for their actions.  This play beautifully and tragically showcases how James has to accept that there really are forces beyond his control.

People might be mortal human beings, but sometimes leaving behind what they cannot change is the only action that they must do to begin anew.

Domestic Violence - An Alex Andy Phuong Review of the Play by Mr. Ben

Domestic violence is a real-world issue that is undeniably controversial.  In fact, sometimes people would marry, but then hurt one another after proclaiming their wedding vows.  Nevertheless, such tension between lovers who actually hate each other can provide a dark form of entertainment.  That is the main purpose of the play Domestic Violence by Mr. Ben.

The play itself is a tough pill to swallow (so to speak).  Even though it could be painful to read or watch a performance of this play, it still delves deep into the nature of relationships.  Furthermore, the play dares to ask the validity of love between people who do marry each other.  In fact, the play even asserts that some marriages do not even express genuine love and affection.  All of these elements make Domestic Violence a compelling stage drama.

Just like Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, this play by Mr. Ben reveals the harsh realities about what sometimes actually does happen behind closed doors.

Alex Andy Phuong's Thoughts on (P.O.T.) The Poured Out Thoughts by Mr. Ben

 

          One of the greatest joys of being a writer is the act of pouring out thoughts from the mind onto a page.  Indeed, any published writing would not exist if people did not express their thoughts through written and creative expression.  This fundamental fact is part of the reason why Mr. Ben is currently one of the most compelling authors of contemporary poetry.

            In his collection entitled The Poured Out Thoughts, Mr. Ben explores the implications of life itself through his keen insight about the philosophical and sometimes enigmatic qualities of what it means to live.  For example, in the poem with the title “The Worthiness of Truth,” one of the most striking lines is, “Truth dwells with and in humanity,” and that bold statement reveals the fact that the truth holds great power.  The lines that follows, though, suggests that not everything in life is true.  Specifically, the line, “Truth is actually not sold” implies that truth is both intangible and is not always valid.  Therefore, the titular phrase of this particular poem questions “the worthiness of truth” by daring to ask if what is true really is true at all.

            Throughout this poetic publication, Mr. Ben also express appreciation and admiration to family in a universal way.  For example, the poem “Dad Loves Me” is a fantastic poem about the connections between fathers and their children.  The short and simple lines include, “Dad loves me / because He made me / Dad makes me trust him / because he made my team” (1-4), and these lines are all simply profound.  The poem is essentially an expression of gratitude from a child to his or her father because such a child would not even be alive if a mother and father have not created such a child biologically.  The concluding lines, “Daddy loves me always! That’s why I love him too” is a great reminder about the power of unconditional love so that the family that a mother and a father has created will not fall apart despite all of the hatred and negativity that exists in the real world.

The Poured Out Thoughts is an insightful poetry collection that are much more than thoughts poured out onto pages.  It is actually a poetry collection that reveals universal truths while also encouraging readers to be careful about the subjective nature of reality.  Mr. Ben’s poetry delves deep into what it means to live while also advocating the notion that no one must be left behind because of the basic community that connects all people in the world.

"Wake Up Dream Boy!" - A Review of the Screenplay by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Dreams are both real and enigmatic.  People oftentimes dream of a better life for themselves, or simply dream when they sleep.  Nevertheless, reality is reality, and sometimes people have to wake up to connect themselves to the real world.  That is one of the key themes in the screenplay by Mr. Ben entitled Wake Up Dream Boy! 

The protagonist named Tom is a very interesting character.  His narrative definitely has cinematic qualities because of how his dreams juxtapose the reality of his own life.  The screenplay could be frightening at times, but it is still compelling nevertheless.

This film might only suit those willing to accept reality rather than deny it!

Deep Words As Written By Mr. Ben - A Review By Alex Andy Phuong

Ever since the dawn of time, human beings have stood apart from other creatures within the animal kingdom because of the profound ability to reason.  That is because other animals have the ability to utilize survival mechanisms, but people can think deeply and profoundly.  That is especially true for scholars ever since civilization and domestication came about during the times of Ancient Greece.  Even in modern times, people still ponder their purpose in the world and in life.  Mr. Ben beautifully explores those unfathomable concepts in One Man's Deep Words.

Many students in real life attend school in order to receive a proper education.  Unfortunately, philosophy classes are sometimes not that popular.  In fact, some would avoid that academic subject all together.  Nevertheless, having the willingness to learn about philosophical concepts can truly lead to enlightenment.  That is the premise of this dazzling novel from Mr. Ben.

Sometimes writers do not get paid to think, but thinking is one of the greatest actions that a person can do in real life to help contribute to the real world!

Thinking Thoughts - A Review of The Ideas Behind Them by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

One of the key features about being human is having the ability to think.  Unfortunately, some people in the real world are so clueless that others might regard such people as being brainless.  Nevertheless, it is fortunate that some people actually do utilize the organ that controls action, thoughts, and personal character.  That is part of the appeal of The Ideas Behind Them…a collection of science, sexuality, gender and philosophy-related interests by Mr. Ben.

This collection of profound writing from Mr. Ben deeply explores the different facets about being human.  In a way, the words flow elegantly and eloquently to delve deep within enigmatic mysterious with beautifully written ambiguity.  Because of the subjective nature of reality, this book is essential to anyone wanting to learn more about what it means to be a person with only one life upon the Earth.

The ideas behind what exists in life might originate from the brain, but the only ones who truly utilize their own minds, hearts, and souls can truly mold themselves to form a unified whole!

Stories of Life Significance - A Review of the Work by Mr. Ben from Alex Andy Phuong

Life itself is just as subjective as it is beautiful.  In fact, many authors write to ponder about the nature of reality, and why people even live in the first place.  Because of the notion that life is significant, which contrasts the idea that life is meaningless, that idea makes Stories of Life Significance a truly compelling short story collection from Mr. Ben.

Each narrative is unique in its own way.  The chapters actually delve deep into what it means to live life while simultaneously acknowledging the fundamental fact that people are animals by default.  That might sound a bit awkward, but sometimes people in real life do forget that human beings are mammals that live on Earth with other creatures in the animal kingdom.  Nevertheless, this short story collection from Mr. Ben can inspire readers to live life passionately rather than regard themselves as insignificant.

All people might be mere mortals upon the Earth, but Stories of Life Significance can remind readers that their lives truly matter.  It ultimately depends on what people do with their lives that matters more.

Carpe Diem (Seize the day)!

Becoming Mature - A Review of Mr. Ben's "Children's Companion" by Alex Andy Phuong

 A fundamental fact of life is that youthfulness and immaturity go hand-in-hand.  Nevertheless, it is still possible to practice responsibility and to demonstrate maturity as people age.  That fundamental fact forms the basis of Mr. Ben's Children's Companion, which could really help young people cope with growing up.

Told through seven short plays and three short stories, this collection is a riveting portrait of the transition from childhood to adulthood.  The narratives all encompass the notion that people do grow old, but only a select few actually grow up.  Hopefully this literary work will inspire readers to take the initiative to endure the challenges that life has to offer.

Children's Companion is an essential companion to help the children of today become the adults of the future!

The Only Constant - A Review of Mr. Ben's "Winds of Change" by Alex Andy Phuong

 Ever since the times of Ancient Greece, people knew that change is constant.  The fact that the world keeps changing ever since the dawn of time is a universal fact.  It is also undeniable that writing styles change alongside the development of what readers would consider "literary."  Even during the modern era, authors attempt to both define (as well as redefine) what compelling literature truly is.  Mr. Ben does that with his novel Winds of Change.

Told through ten chapters and a series of thought factories that Mr. Ben himself composed, this is truly a remarkable work of modern literature!  Mr. Ben utilizes Christian theology to compose a didactic work that can educate readers as all people undertake the journey of life itself.  The novel also acknowledges the fundamental fact that learning happens all lifelong, and not just at academic institutions.  The concluding thought factories also reiterate the main themes within the novel, and offers profound insight as to how people can cope with change (but only if they decide to do so, of course).

Change does happen constantly, but people can decide on their own how to deal with the symbolic winds of change!

Growing Up - A Review of Mr. Ben's The Young People's Plays by Alex Andy Phuong

Some would consider life as the ultimate narrative.  The changes that people undergo between birth until death continue to captivate audiences even in the current era that defines modernity.  Nevertheless, people exhibit immaturity when they are young, and only a select few transition from being childish to being mature.  That is one of the seminal ideas that Mr. Ben explores in The Young People's Plays.

Written as a collection of stage plays, this work from Mr. Ben is essential for anyone wanting to know what it is like to transition between childhood and adulthood.  Each story is unique, and explores different facets while ultimately defining what it means to be human.  It is true that people inevitably make mistakes, but choosing to learn from mistakes is completely optional.  That fundamental fact is one of the core elements that make this collection from Mr. Ben riveting and inspirational.

Young people might like playing games during their youth, and The Young People's Plays works well as a collection of stage dramas because of the famed Shakespearean notion that the world is the ultimate stage!

Redefining Santa Claus - A Review of "Santa In Two Worlds" by Mr. Ben Written by Alex Andy Phuong

Santa Claus is an iconic figure.  Despite the commercialization of Christmas time within the modern era, Santa is a popular character for both children and adults.  Furthermore, artists, filmmakers, and writers like to reinvent the classics for contemporary audiences.  Mr. Ben does that with Santa In Two Worlds.

 

This is a very clever and witty Christmas tale from Mr. Ben!  Mr. Ben effectively and intelligently defines the identity of Santa Claus while also paying respects to the importance of the Christmas holiday with regards to Christianity.  This depiction is a much different interpretation of the famed character because this novel is very edgy and modern in terms of the plot as well as the writing style.  Stories such as these honor the legacies of classic characters while connecting their respective historical and cultural legacies to the reality of modernity.  This novel is a very enjoyable read for practically any season, and not just the Christmas season!

Ho ho ho!  ;)

Twists of Life by Mr. Ben - An Alex Andy Phuong Review

 

One of the key elements of effective writing is written words revealing the reality of real life.  Homer's epic poem The Odyssey contains famous lines addressed to the Greek Muse of the twists and turns of Odysseus's journey.  That is, in fact, a major component of this particular text that Mr. Ben had written.

This written masterpiece from Mr. Ben reveals how the modern world (as of 2020) truly is a cultural melting pot.  The words reveal the nature of reality while simultaneously addressing modernity.  Twists of Life is a very thoughtful meditation of how people are the metaphorical drivers of their own lives, yet must figuratively encounter twists and turns along their journey towards self-discovery.

Overall, Twists of Life is an extension of the odysseys that people personally undertake to become the people that they are presently, and ultimately decide which paths they take in their own respective lives.

11 Major Deceptions You Must Guard Against… by Mr. Ben - A Review by Alex Andy Phuong

 Love and romance might be trite topics, but writers still write about those ideas.  The modern era has also seen literature and film attempt to redefine the traditional love story, such as the film Her (2013).  Even though such stories might be cliché, learning how to deal with people can help keep danger at bay.  Mr. Ben provides caution using his text entitled, 11 Major Deceptions You Must Guard Against….

Through very frank and honest language, Mr. Ben delves deep into the nature of relationships.  The author shares his thoughts on love, romance, and sexuality in a very compelling way.  The writing is very bold through a uniquely distinctive and modern style.  This work from Mr. Ben is essential for anyone considering about entering relationships, and how to deal with people after the establishment of connections between people.

Romance and passion might include deception, but Mr. Ben unveils the truths about the realities of love.

A Review of Mr. Ben's "The Broken Mirror" by Alex Andy Phuong

 When people marry, some would assume that such couples are a match made in heaven.  Nevertheless, not all marriages are that pleasant.  For example, Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? remains a controversial classic because it openly depicts a marriage in crisis between George and Martha.  Marriage itself is a bit tricky because of the subjectivity of love itself.  That is part of the narrative that Mr. Ben had written entitled, The Broken Mirror.

Starting with background information, Mr. Ben reveals the harsh realities about marriages that fail.  This insightful story displays conflicts between Bode and his wife, Cynthia.  Even though their marriage had lasted for seven years, their relationship turned sour.  In terms of symbolism, the number "seven" is a possible references to the seven deadly sins in Christian theology.  Furthermore, the heartbreaking plot showcases how married couples may not share mutual love and respect.

The Broken Mirror is a reflective work that reflects how what someone sees might not necessarily be what that person perceives.

Experiences - Written by Mr. Ben, and Reviewed by Alex Andy Phuong

 

Mr. Ben is currently one of the most prolific authors of the modern era.  His writing blends classical ideas with modern style.  With all of the experiences that he has acquired as an author, he obviously learned powerful life lessons along the way.  That is what he does as he opens up with a one-page piece entitled, "Experiences."

Through this insightful text, Mr. Ben reveals a lot about himself, his work, and what it means to be a writer.  This short piece is very compelling.  Furthermore, this written work is like a summation of the stellar body of work that Mr. Ben has published thus far.  The experiences from Mr. Ben are very educational, and will hopefully inspire writers as they aspire to become published authors.

Sometimes the pen really is mightier than the sword!

Thinking Deeply – A Review of Mr. Ben’s The Array of Thoughts by Alex Andy Phuong

 

One of the compelling features of being human is having the ability to think.  Other animals on Earth might have brains, yet people are within a league of their own when it comes to reasoning.  Some people think, and others do not.  Nevertheless, the intellectuals can help revolutionize the world.  That is a major idea within The Array of Thoughts by Mr. Ben.

            Within this collection, Mr. Ben masterfully utilizes simple titles to reveal profound profundity with deep poetry.  For example, the poem entitled, “Hope” effectively provides hope for anyone willing to accept it.  Furthermore, there are several Christmas-themed poems that explore the connections between that particular holiday and Christianity.  Different poems in this collection also have a meditative quality that delve deep into the nature of reality.

            Hopefully readers will think more abstractly and concretely after reading the array of thoughts from the mind of Mr. Ben!

Verbal Thinking - A Review of "Talking Thoughts" by Mr. Ben Written by Reviewer Alex Andy Phuong

Dorothy Richardson pioneered the stream of consciousness technique.  Her writing influenced authors like William James, James Joyce, and William Faulkner.  Even in 2020, authors reveal a lot about reality by utilizing whatever comes to mind.  Mr. Ben does that with the appropriately titled work, Talking Thoughts.

Throughout this written work, Mr. Ben employs thinking and talking to reveal the nature of communication.  The mind is also different from the voice, but people could use both to interact with the world and society as a whole.  Unfortunately, some people neither think or talk, and some do not even think before they speak.  Therefore, Talking Thoughts has a warning that it is impossible to revoke what people say.  Nevertheless, people can still proceed with caution to reveal to the world what they really mean to say and do.

Hopefully Talking Thoughts will inspire inspirational discussions!

"Christmas Time" by Mr. Ben - A Screenplay Review by Alex Andy Phuong

 

A Joyous Holiday Treat

 

            Mr. Ben’s Christmas Time reveals the jovial nature of the Christmas holiday.  The screenplay for Christmas Time warms the heart much like the original short story collection that this screenplay is based upon.

            As a feature film, this screenplay could truly function as a modern holiday classic.  The writing reveals the timeless notion that home really is where the hearth is.  Furthermore, Christmas Time could potentially remind audiences about treasuring the gift of life itself.

            Holiday films might be seasonal, and sometimes a bit cliché.  Nevertheless, Mr. Ben demonstrates his versatility as an author by adapting his own short story collection for a full-length feature.  Hopefully moviegoers would witness the majesty of Mr. Ben’s holidays stories if Christmas Time does make it to theaters just in time for the holiday season!

God's Love Towards His People by Mr. Ben - Review by Alex Andy Phuong

 Christian narratives are undeniably religious.  Not everyone believes in God, but stories involving the Bible and what it teaches can be very compelling.  Mr. Ben is a very respectable author, and his short story collection entitled God's Love Towards His People is simply dazzling.

Through two short stories, Mr. Ben demonstrates his prowess as a Christian author.  "Back to God" and "I Have Found God's Love" could both have the potential for being adapted as Christian-based feature films.  Films like War Room (2015) might be niche experiences in movie theaters, but these two stories by Mr. Ben are cinematic as well as Biblical.  It is almost as if both stories are parables!

Hopefully the light will shine through thanks to writers like Mr. Ben!

The Journey to Love by Mr. Ben Review - Much More Than Romance

Much More Than Romance

 

Some would consider love as a trite topic.  Nevertheless, love is an essential element about life itself.  Without love, meaningful bonds and relationships would never form.  Even when love fades, people can still express gratitude for their experiences with their fellow human beings.  That is part of the brilliance of The Journey to Love by Mr. Ben.

Through a collection of short stories, Mr. Ben reveals the different facets of love within this special collection.  Each narrative uniquely portrays love, and not just romance.  For example, there is self-love, the love for other people, and the love that holds the world together as a whole.  Without being overly sentimental, Mr. Ben reveals how love and life are both figurative journeys towards self-discovery.  That is part of the reason why this series of stories are appropriate within modernity.

Charles Dickens achieved fame for penning Great Expectations, a novel about self-acceptance.  The Journey to Love, by Mr. Ben, is truly a testament to taking the initiative towards reverence (and not just romance).

Saved by His Grace by Mr. Ben (Review by Alex Andy Phuong)

 

                                                         Salvation from a Savior    

                                                 

            During these uncertain times in 2020, many people turn to religion as a coping mechanism.  Many would agree that life itself is difficult (which is also oftentimes undeniable).  Nevertheless, compelling writing can help readers learn about reality, and more importantly, accept life for what it is.  That is part of the brilliance of Saved by His Grace by Mr. Ben.

            First of all, this is a truly compelling work of Christian fiction.  The differing segments and chapters offer a variety of writing styles in such a well-written text.  The characters almost have an aura around them (so to speak) because of the religious aspects within them.  The writing also delves deep into Christian theology while also paying respects to readers who might not believe in divinity.  That takes a lot of skill, especially since the modern world is very diverse.

            Without being too cliché, Saved by His Grace is much more than a work of Christian fiction because it offers what it means to live life while expressing goodwill to both other people and towards oneself.  Hallelujah!
