Recently I saw a 3D movie “Wonder Woman” – it is a story about Diana Prince who was raised on the hidden island of Themyscira, home to the Amazon race of warrior women created by the gods of Mount Olympus to protect humankind. Diana happens to be Zeus’ secret weapon capable of killing his renegade son, Ares or the god of war. So she helped end the WWI after coming to the human dimension and having encountered human wickedness and goodness despite warning from her mother that the flawed humankind doesn’t deserve her help. Finally, Diana said, “I used to want to save the world. To end war and bring peace to mankind. But then, I glimpsed the darkness that lives within their light. And I learned that inside every one of them, there will always be both. A choice each must make for themselves. Something no hero will ever defeat. And now I know, that only love can truly save the world. So I stay, I fight, and I give, for the world I know can be.”
