"We Heroic Spirits are merely shadows of times long past, people like you who live in this time are treasures to us, everything we fought for was for the sake of the future." -Karna
As humans, we are weak and prone to our own follies and will undoubtedly die.. but even if thats the case, we still push forward regardless. Despite all the tragedy, we continue to push forward even if it breaks us.. From heroes of old to modern day, we keep doing so despite knowing that at the end of it all, it will be forgotten..
So Why? What's the point of humans continuing to push forward even when it seems hopeless?
Its simple.. a simple straightforward answer.. "To live". Thats it, thats all the reason, nothing grand or extravagant and even if just one person continues to fight for humanity.. the heroes of old will answer their call, because they too fought in the past so that the future will continue to live and prosper.
Haa... I wish I could claim I wrote that. But I didn't. It's the truth though. We don't need some grand reasoning to do the things we do. Instead we move forward, pushing on while struggling in vain. All to do one thing. To Live.
I was asked once a simple question. Why? Why do I struggle despite being weak? I couldn't answer then, but now i can.
"It's not about glory, fame or anything. It's all about keep moving on no matter how much I think I am nothing or the world is still against me. I still have some fight left within me. It doesn't matter if I keep losing, I'm still moving. Even if I have no real dreams on my own, I can do it. That's how I am."
