Are You the King’s Friend or Foe?

Warning: There might be spoilers ahead so consider yourselves warned!

Today we are not talking about games! Hah, gotcha! But, it will be close. I just came back from a movie “King Arthur: Legend for the Sword”. There are two main moments that captured my attention most. I don’t claim to give you the exact phrases from the movie, you’ll rather get my interpretations. That said let’s dive right in.

First one - everyone is turning their eyes away from something which they don’t want to see. Sounds philosophical? You can bet it is! Still, so much true. Each of us is facing his own demons, and constantly turning his head around, because it’s easier not to face them. The moral: the moment you take responsibility for your past, for each action you have taken, no matter what pushed you to this action is the moment you feel freedom. You feel in control! Of course, in movies it’s much easier for the main hero, right? But my friends, be the main heroes of your life!

Second moral, came at the very end of the movie in a simple sentence (paraphrasing here): “Friends are much more valuable than enemies”. And it’s so very true again! Have you ever tried arguing with a colleague? Angrily defending your thesis! Did that ever get the job done? You must be friends with your colleague if you wish to get to the desired outcome! It’s the same with guildmates, family, you fill the rest of this sentence with whoever you wish. I’ve argued with a lot of people in my life, so try to avoid my mistake. It’s much more helpful to become friends, look in the same direction and get things done.

That’s it! Keep making friends, learning and may the Force be with you!

P.S. Sorry for these too many exclamation marks. And a big thank you to all of you for spending the time to read this! I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comment below.
