Star Wars

"The Hero's journey is a journey into the center of yourself"


This is true for Luke because in the movie he not only felt deep down that his father, Darth Vader was good, but he had to search deep down inside himself. Reason I say this, is because in order to hold one's stand the way Luke had, he had to know himself, he had to trust in himself and he had to find that strength that one can only find within themselves. And how he held his ground and refused to kill him, it takes strength.
Now Darth Vader, perhaps it was a little harder for him seeing as he had said it was hard to resist the darkness, and that it was impossible, however, with the help of his son Luke, who refused to give up and refused to believe that he was all bad, he too searched inside himself and found that Luke was actually right. And with that, he gave his life to save his son. In the end, it was not only Luke who was the hero, but Darth Vader as well.
