"The heroes journey is a journey into the center of yourself"
I honestly have no idea what this means but i have to write about it. I think that this is true for both Luke and Darth Vader because they are supposedly heroes and they have been through a lot. And going through everything and all of the challenges have shown them who they really are. So the journeys that they have been through are also journeys to figuring out who they really are. I think that although this is only a movie, it shows how true life is.People go through difficult challenges and situations that they think they cannot overcome just so it can lead them to figure out who the 'real' them is. And i think thats what Luke and Darth Vader had to do. They had to choose in big situations and make the right choices, they had to pick who they could and couldnt trust and go with their gut feeling sometimes when they didn't know the right answer.And thats exactly what you have to do in real life. I know in the past year i've had to make decisions that i had no idea what to choose, i've been faced with situations that i thought i couldnt handle, but i did. I really screwed up a lot of those times, unlike Luke and Darth Vader, but there in a movie so everything is suppose to work out for them, real life doesnt work that way. But im starting to figure out who i can trust, who i cant, who my real friends are, if the decisions i made are going to work out, and you could say it's kind of like a journy to the center of myself. Im learning things about me that i didnt know and im learning who i am, which is what happend with Luke and Darth Vader.
