Personal Narrative-Where Is The Hero?
I was the hero people looked up to.
I was called one night to a robbery in downtown Gotham
When all of a sudden there was a sharp pain in my back
The pain felt like I was shot with a gun…
Which was exactly what happened.
I looked behind me only to see darkness tearing at my soul,
But in my minds eye came the comforting image that is with me always,
My parents.
They were looking at me with gentle eyes and proud faces, like I was their universe.

    Everyone keeps telling me all these things. How strong I am. How Sangwoo was a horrible person and it isn’t my fault.

    Throughout our lives, we all go through a fairly similar story where we start off making our own ordinary world full of predictability and comfort, that we all eventually get taken or drawn away from. Many will attempt to refuse this call to adventure, and many others will have no choice and get tossed into an unknown, difficult world. In this new world, we’ll have to go through at least one supreme ordeal, if not much more, being hindered by our own demons and by the demons of others, and getting help from allies. We'll go through various tests and learn crucial lessons from all of the mistakes we'll make along the way. This story we go through is professionally referred to as the Hero's Journey and my older brother, Preston, is a terrific…

That was Tom's usual mode of concentration and contemplation, and so intent was the man's focus on the new case that all else slipped from his mind, even the recollection that he'd texted his wife. Therefore, the sudden familiar sound of her voice, accompanied by the enticing aroma of barbecue, startled him, and he immediately shot upright. The sight of Lila elicited a smile that only widened with the greeting and kiss. "Sorry baby."…
