heroes

I have been watching the heroes, TV series since season one and quite fond of it. This series gave away some new perspectives about the word “heroes” itself. It is really something compare to seeing marvel’s super heroes parade (note superman, batman, spidey, etc).

Usually in this kind of story, we all idolize the good guy and mock on the bad guy. This is the story where everything is as clear as black and white. Unfortunately, real life doesn’t always have that luxury. Something that the heroes series is closer to. Suddenly you might find life is grey. And while you get older you find more greyness, like your hair for instance

And I’m thinking it is only sane that we take advise from good guys, but it is also not that insane to take advise from the bad guys. As I watched Heroes season 3, Chapter Three — Building 26 I find this scene particularly interesting because of these lines by Sylar. Yes, Sylar is the dreadful brain man who eats brain belongs to other people with abilities to have their powers. Being a successful villain from season 1 to 4 while others get killed less than 1 season he must have something.

In this scene he was trying to teach something to a young rascal with abilities. This was what he spill out:

Sylar is Giving Away Keynotes

427
00:22:30,840 –> 00:22:34,670
Always have an objective.

428
00:22:34,740 –> 00:22:38,670
Know your end game before you lift a hand.

429
00:22:38,740 –> 00:22:40,700
What else?

430
00:22:40,770 –> 00:22:41,700
Keep a clear head.

431
00:22:41,770 –> 00:22:43,970
Emotions make you sloppy.

432
00:22:44,040 –> 00:22:46,440
The most important thing

433
00:22:46,500 –> 00:22:48,540
Is that you understand your motivation.

434
00:22:48,600 –> 00:22:50,800
Always know what it is that you want.

I find this is a very nice advice to get a direction on what ever that you’re doing. Though I think “negative emotions make you sloppy” is more appropriate. We all need and crave for positive emotions, like happiness and love. I also think “always know what it is that you want” part is a difficult thing to do since we usually got ourselves lost somewhere in the middle of the journey.

1. Courage is Not The Absence of Fear

Anne Hathaway

Last week I watched The Princess Diaries, the first serial. I’ve been looking for Anne Hathaway’s movies since I watched The Devil Wears Prada. She’s so gorgeous. The Princess Diaries was produced at 2001, but she still looks young as ever.

Well, I’m not a fan of a girlie-girlie things, but the movie turned out to be a fine one. What I want to share is that in the movie there was a scene when the main character, Mia read a letter from her father for her 16th birthday.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgemRegenerate Thumbnailsent that something else is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all. From now on, you’ll be traveling the road between who you think you are and who you can be. The key is to allow yourself to make the journey.

This is a very good quote, almost like a poem. It said that you don’t have to eliminate all your fears to be brave. And sometimes you must be brave enough to take a chance, to live this live. If you always be cautios in everything and never take action you won’t experience anything. It’s alright to fail, to fall, and to live. It really makes you think about how you take actions in life and how you should abandon your fears for important things in your live
