Now it’s your turn →All the ideas are flowing, you’ve got the solutions to the problems. And you may be the right person for the job. So why do you want to run away?
In Spider-Noir, Ben Reilly is a private detective with an alter ego as a super-powered hero. He is also experiencing loss. Trying to find his place and face the consequences of the great responsibility he must bear is an up and down rollercoaster. But when he rises to put others in front of his own desires, he truly shines.
It can be overwhelming to know that you may be able to solve a problem. But the obstacles and the journey are arduous. The naysayers. The egos. The potential for failure. And the potential for loss. So why take the journey if you could lose? Because with gifts come responsibility. And courage in the face of self-doubt can help you bring your powers for the greater good.
The world doesn’t fix itself. And sure, a solution could happen without you. But how much better could it be with someone like you?
Sometimes we want to run away not because we have nothing to offer. But because we know we do. And that knowledge carries weight. But if your gifts can help bring light into the world, then maybe the question is not whether you are ready. Maybe the question is whether you are willing to answer.
