Try to think for a moment about eternity. As humans, large numbers are not our specialty – we struggle to imagine what our lifetimes looks like. It’s tough, but try for a moment to imagine everything that came before and everything that comes after this moment.

Now, think for another moment about the courage it must take to endure for an eternity. What kind of courage is needed for one to outlast the people they love, the burning out of stars above, and the cold uniformity of entropy, millennia from now? The answer is Her courage. Think of Homura. To assign herself a task that lasts for an eternity - becoming a force of nature, destined to outlast everything, in exchange for a single lifetime of happiness for someone else - is the most courageous, selfless action imaginable.

In your day to day life, as you encounter the obstacles and barriers to happiness that inevitably spring up in the paths of men and women everywhere, think of Homura Akemi’s boundless courage. Pay tribute to her, not just by posting here, but by raising your own courage, even as the universe conspires against you.

Have the courage to keep moving forward, Anon. And while you're at it, post Homura Akemi here.
