( give it your own title )
There’s a point you need to look for in every movie, usually about half and hour before the end, when the hero is defeated in some spectacular way, beaten into submission and presumed dead. If not dead, then maybe they’ve given up, lost all hope, and there doesn’t seem to be any way to convince them to carry-on and reach for the thing they’ve been reaching for.
But then, something incredible happens. They look inside themselves and discover something that was lost - the strength to carry them on. A single spark lit a fire inside them and they return to the fight and this time they win and then the credits roll.
We tell ourselves the story again and again because it’s what we want in our darkest hour. We want to believe that something inside of us, some undiscovered or forgotten part, will help us look up from the darkness and rise to fight again.
And when in the dark, remember that this might be the part where you have to get up and fight.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE , shorter.
They love you like rain loves,
and in return, you love like a flood loves,
and just like a flood,
you are not in control
because that is the nature of your love,
and you have never learn to love
another way.
