HEROES: a voice-over about running away.

Oct 17, 2008 21:47


"The Earth is large. Large enough that you think you can hide from anything. From Fate. From God. If only you found a place far enough away. So you run. To the edge of the Earth. Where all is safe again. Quiet, and warm. The solace of salt air. The peace of danger left behind. The luxury of grief. And maybe, for a moment, you believe you have escaped.

You can run far, you can take your small precautions. But have you really gotten away? Can you ever escape? Or is it the truth that you did not have the strength or cunning to hide from destiny? That the world is not small. you are. And, fate can find you anywhere."

Have we really gotten away when we resorted to running from all of it? Truly, we cannot force nor control anything yet inexplicably we could be forced and controlled by all the unknowns of life (some things about life that we ourselves couldn't explain). I must admit that this voice-over really hit me. There's so much truth in it. I would say I may be in the running right now. I don't really know. It's inexplicable as life may seems.
But could we be blamed for running away?
What if you were victimized by a failed belief?
Could that passed as a valid reason for some vindication?
Would life stop running after you and instead reward you with its goodness?

voice-over, heroes
