Fear

Here's a Chance for me to show off my Skilz
Because I need to for class, here is a poem i wrote on FEAR


If it takes a thousand years,
Eventually my strength will prevail
And I will rid myself of my fear

I wish for a soulmate to love me
I will succeed, I will not fail
If it takes a thousand years

I long for someone to hold me
I'm battered, fragile, and frail
But I will rid myself of fear

I wish that you could set me free
And I would see you in your veil.
If it takes me a thousand years

Under the shade of an aspen tree
I promise myself with you I will sail
And i will rid myself of fear.

Now you said you loved me, for all eternity
And even if i still turn pale
If it takes me a thousand years
I will rid myself of fear.

The Hero's Journey

Crossing the Threshold.

Part Two: Crossing the threshold

Now that our hero has gone through the tedious act of accepting the call to adventure, he needs some help crossing the threshold. The "supernatural aid" so to speak. The threshold separates the known and the unknown knowledge along the heroes journey. An example in the Star wars movies, Luke Skywalker knew that the Jedi existed during the clone wars and that was about it.

As Luke travels throughout his journey, he finds a couple different Jedi, learning more about what the order was before they were lost. Crossing the threshold of the unknown, he starts his transformation as part of the Jedi world- ready to influence all that he might come across.

Crossing the threshold is an important gap; without the threshold being crossed, the hero cannot enter into the unknown and solve the problem in which the plot revolves around. But sure to have an adequate and descript crossing of the threshold, lest the hero be seen as under powered or inadequate.
