Hard & Hysterical
It’s hard
and hysterical
when you realize
that the savior
you seek
is you.
The Revelation of Self-Reliance
The realization that the savior one seeks is oneself can indeed be a profound, albeit challenging, awakening. It’s a moment of both hardship and humor, as it overturns long-held beliefs about external salvation and places the responsibility of salvation upon oneself.
The Hardness of Self-Discovery
The hardness in this revelation lies in the understanding that one cannot rely on external forces for salvation or change. It challenges the individual to confront their own capabilities and limitations, to embrace their responsibility for their own life and happiness.
The Hysterical Aspect of Self-Salvation
Conversely, there’s a hysterical, almost ironic aspect to this realization. The humor emerges from the absurdity of searching externally for what has always been within. It’s the kind of laughter that comes from understanding the paradoxes of life and the often circuitous path of self-discovery.
Empowerment in Self-Realization
This revelation is ultimately empowering. Recognizing oneself as the savior is a call to action, a prompt to take charge of one’s destiny. It’s an invitation to cultivate inner strength, wisdom, and resilience.
The Journey from External to Internal
The transition from seeking external salvation to recognizing one’s own role as the savior is a significant shift. It’s a journey from looking outward to diving inward, from seeking answers in the external world to finding them within.
The Universality of the Experience
This experience, in its mixture of difficulty and humor, is universal. It’s a shared human moment where the comedy and tragedy of life intertwine, revealing deeper truths about our existence and our role in shaping it.
Conclusion
The realization that the savior one seeks is oneself encapsulates the dual nature of many life lessons – they are often hard yet hysterical. This understanding marks a pivotal moment in the journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

“He who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior.” – Confucius
In the search for a hero, a guide,
We look far and wide, outside,
Yet in this quest, we come to see,
The savior we seek, is me, is thee.
Hard, the path of self-reliance,
In the face of our own defiance,
