The Trauma Code: Heroes On Call. Episode 6: Reasons For Not Giving Up.

#the trauma code: heroes on call

Oftentimes, as we grow older, we forget the things we are supposed to be dying and living for.

This scene made me realize and pray that if I happen to reach that certain age, I hope I still have with me the sparks, the grit, and above all, the passion to do what I have always dreamt to do.

Oftentimes, as we get older, we tend to become desensitize with what once made our lives worth dying and living for. And I can't really blame the adults because life can really teach us lessons filled with lemons and would sometimes force us bitter pills to swallow.

I guess this is why the heart and dreams we carry as a teenager are really the most passionate ones. Because it was the age where we believe everything is possible and everything is just at an arms length—that we will get there. But as adults, we know that that is not always the case. And sometimes, we just simply learned to live with that.

But I am really hoping that if and when I reach this age, I hope whatever morals I have as an eighteen years old from years ago will still be within me. I hope she never lose her sparks. I hope she never lose that fire within her.

I can only hope.

The gods are all powerful, but they have to play by the rules. Yes. And they create demigods so we can break the rules for them. Yes! But if we can break rules and they can't, shouldn't they be just as afraid of us as we are of them? ...What? Nothing. You're learning fast.

“But here’s a little secret for you: no one is ever the same thing again after anything. You are never the same twice, and much of your unhappiness comes from trying to pretend that you are. Accept that you are different each day, and do so joyfully, recognizing it for the gift it is. Work within the desires and goals of the person you are currently, until you aren’t that person anymore, and everything changes once again.”

— Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 75: Through the Narrow Place

"And then he was gone. And I knew right then and there that I was never going to let anybody get by me without understanding they might be hurting inside, you know. Cause life, it's hard. It's real hard."

So I look up at the stars to guide me, and throw caution to every warning sign. I’m sure there will be challenges that find me, but I can take them on one at a time.
