Because you’re not the only one who has suffered. Who wants more. Who wants them back. Who doesn’t want to be afraid anymore. Or alone. Or frightened. Or powerless. ’Cause you’re not the only one who imagined a world where everything was different. Better. Finally. A world where they were loved and seen, and appreciated. Finally. But what is it costing you? Do you see the truth?
You’re not the only one who has suffered. Who wants more. Who wants them back. Who doesn’t want to be afraid anymore. Or alone. Or frightened. Or powerless. Because you’re not the only one who imagined the world where everything was different.
Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) dir. Patty Jenkins
Some days, my childhood feels so very far away. And others… I can almost see it. The magical land of my youth… like a beautiful dream of when the whole world felt like a promise and the lessons that lay ahead yet unseen. Looking back, I wish I’d listened. Wish I’d watched more closely and understood. But sometimes you can’t see what you’re learning until you come out the other side.

I give everything that I have every day, and I’m happy to. But this one thing…
Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman in Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) dir. Patty Jenkins
I’ve never wanted anything more. But he’s gone… and that’s the truth. And everything has a price. One I’m not willing to pay. Not anymore. This world was a beautiful place just as it was… and you cannot have it all. You can only have the truth. And the truth is enough. The truth is beautiful.
Some days, my childhood feels so very far away. And others, I can almost see it. The magical land of my youth. Like a beautiful dream of when the whole world felt like a promise, and the lessons that lay ahead yet unseen. Looking back, I wish I’d listened. Wish I’d watched more closely, and understood. But sometimes you can’t see what you’re learning, until you come out the other side.
- I’ll never love again.
- I pray that isn’t true. There’s a wonderful, big world out there. This crazy new world. And I am so happy I got to see it… but it deserves you.
