Can you not say the same: A hero comes

"Everything is alright now, because I am here." - All Might, Boku no Hero Academia

Somehow, it gets me to tears, perhaps it's the childhood dream that's in me that crying. I dreamt of one day becoming a hero as well. I'll be the greatest of them all, and when the world needs me, I'd like to say this. I never thought of this, but these words, it symbolizes lots of thing. But one thing for sure, it surpasses hope, it is dream.

I would like to say much of the anime but I won't say I'm a fan. I only watched it since a friend of mine insisted me to watch it. And I did and somehow, my inner childhood dream of heroism suddenly woke. It's funny since, my dream of heroism, or rather my dreams from my childhood to how old I am now have changed, always have been.

But for now, let's talk about the phrase. First of, who is All Might?

(I will be talking in a light enthusiasm since I am not a fan but a fan of All Might's heroism. And perhaps of the main character, Midoriyama as well. Light enthusiasm in a sense that I won't be delving much into the anime or manga lore but only to a casual reader perspective... casual or perhaps just... you get the idea.)

(Also to fans of the anime, I apologize if butcher my description of All Might)

All Might is the name of the most revered hero of the anime. He is super strong and his mental fortitude is geared always toward heroism. Think of Incredible Hulk's superhuman capabilities and Captain America's heroic stance. And no he doesn't go berserk. His favorite motto perhaps, other than the phrase stated is, "Go beyond plus ultra." This, I'm not much fond as the first, but you could say it's a paraphrase of "Go beyond limits."

Let's go back to the phrase, "Everything is alright now, because I am here."

(So from here on I will be talking about personal stuffs or perhaps not... just opinions? I guess.)

If you're a child, you would perhaps more be enthusiastic of the line: "Go beyond plus ultra," since it's a jumbled of great words as well as it is catchy. But perhaps if you've grown up but still a child at heart, you would still be enthusiastic about that same line. But perhaps in your broadened understanding, it is the other phrase that will get much into your emotion.

Perhaps, I am feeling a bit hopeless these past few months. I feel like lose or something. It's not that I'm questioning myself what's the point of me waking up every morning I wake up. I don't. It's that what's the point of all these? To be honest, I was never really much successful in life, not yet, I hope. But I never am. And it seems I have failed a lot of those who believed in me back then. Back then when I was still a dreamer, a person full of passion and enthusiasm. A person of grit, who wouldn't give up no matter what, but as I've said, things change. Even dreams.

Those words though spark an inner childhood dream of mine, something which I've long forgotten since. For now, I dream of writing, of entertaining, of educating and of inspiring those who'd read my short burst of random ideas that perhaps most of the time doesn't even make sense or perhaps are boring. But either way, it spark of a dream of heroism. I would just barge in to a place and be one to save the day. And everyone will be inspired. I won't be needing any kind of help since I am all that is needed. Hence, "Eveything is going to be alright." In all honesty, I want to be like that. All cool and all powerful, hence, (again) All Might.

Or perhaps I just want to be saved. To be saved from this hopeless state I'm stuck in. I'm not in prison or anything, it's just.. I want to be saved. Self-pity, perhaps... but I don't know. Aren't all heroes like that? At some point or just some of them? They want to save themselves so they in turn save other. They want to help themselves and for them to do so, they end up helping other. I may be wrong and perhaps where this is going is pretty much nowhere.

I cannot say the same as All Might.. I'm not much good at anything. All I'm good at is dreaming. Yes, it's envy. But that can't stop a person from dreaming? Especially, the inner child within them.

To be fair though, these two phrases incites two different thing. The second one is about breaking limits and improving oneself. A good moral for a superhero story. And the first one is of hope. That's the short end of it, though.
