The Hero’s Journey always involved DEATH. Every Hero dies bef | Tate

The Hero’s Journey always involved DEATH.

Every Hero dies before being reborn.

They reach a new low.

Some grave wound that lives with them forever.

A pain, a scar.

Ever since my release from Jail, my nights have been plagued with Nightmares.

5 AM every night, I shot up in a cold sweat.

Furiousity and anxiety ran through my veins, 

The only cure I had found was HARD TRAINING.

10,000 REPETITIONS OF WORK.

Last night, was my first night of restful sleep since my release.

And all I can think about is how I want my nightmares back.

I WANT THEM BACK.

GIVE THEM TO ME. 

HOW DARE I SLEEP SOUNDLY I SHOULD BE TRAINING ALL NIGHT LONG. 

10,000 REPS. 

Bitch made men complain about pain.

I AM FURIOUS THAT I’M HEALING. 

I gave my nightmares nightmares and they ran away like cowards.

Unacceptable. 

I’m so mad at myself you cannot fathom it.

I AM A HERO AND HEROES CARRY SCARS.

THEY CARRY PAIN.

I HAVE NO FEAR BUT THE FEAR OF BEING A COWARD.

GIVE ME EVERY CHALLENGE

GIVE ME SUFFERING

IT’S THE ONLY PATH TO GREATNESS.
