Has anyone else had the "Anakin-to-Obi-Wan" shift in their late 20s?
When I was younger, I was all about Anakin’s raw "Chosen One" talent. But as I’ve gotten older, I find myself admiring Obi-Wan way more. In some ways, I hope to mirror his steadiness and virtues.
In the Mustafar duel, you can actually see Anakin get "heavy" and slow as he redlines on ego and aggression. Meanwhile, Obi-Wan stays steady. He’s the master of Soresu for a reason: it’s about grit, endurance, and outlasting the chaos… and loss.
There is something so respectable about Obi-Wan losing everything and staying principled instead of becoming bitter or reckless. I’m starting to realize that "youthful natural gifts" are volatile, but Obi-Wan’s stoic endurance is what actually survives the long game, like the game of life.
