Star Wars is such an amazing film series. It transcends generations, races, religions, and creeds. Some people just like to awesome battles and lightsaber duels, but the thing that keeps me wrapped up in this galaxy far, far away is it’s universal message: hope.
When we stand together in the face of evil, in the face of persecution, prejudice, oppression, sexism, racism, and hate, we will always triumph. When we refuse to allow the forces of evil take root in our lives, we ourselves become heroes. When we have hope, the universe can impart some wonderful things upon us.
Perhaps the most beautiful thing about this message is that it’s a constant theme in the series and is delivered to each generation in a familiar yet unique way.
Star Wars is a lot closer to our galaxy than we think. All we need is hope.
May the 4th be with you! ❤️
