Unleashing my Inner Avatar

I identify with the character Jack Sully from the movie Avatar. I talk to myself: “What a coincidence! What’s a unique connection?” It happens when you either have a similar trait or want to reach that level shown by a specific character.

Jack’s constant trials and tribulations towards showing his love and attachment to nature ignite the same intense feelings inside me for the Mother Nature. It is due to the same reason that I am at peace when I am close to nature: the fluffy grass that I touch and walk past the thick trees during my evening walk, the starry night that I have mostly witnessed from my rooftop, capturing the moments of bliss while spotting a unique creature in my surrounding and above all, an undefined bond between my soul and the supreme powers are some of the few things that I have developed through all those years.

The way Jack tamed Ikran and Toruk, I have experienced the same art of taming the conflicts and challenges of my life. Nothing is more powerful when nature shows up to support you. Like Jake, who alone fights back against the destruction caused by the machines and modern civilization, I also find the same spirit in me, fighting against all odds. I also see myself going through personal growth and development, learning from my experiences, and striving to create a positive impact on the world around me.
