[En] The War Ended. But You Can't Go Back — What Happens After the Fight Is Over -50 Shades of the Odyssey —Wu Talks World
from 吳聊世界/Wu Talks World · host Light 吳榮光
You made it through. The hard thing is over. You thought you would finally feel like yourself again. But you don't. Something changed. And no matter how much you want to return to who you were before… you can't find the way back. Three thousand years ago, Odysseus finished a ten-year war. And then spent another ten years trying to go home. We call it an adventure story. But Homer was writing something far more intimate than that. He was writing about what happens to a person after they have lived too long in survival mode. About the strange terror of peace. About the distance between who you are now — and who you were before all of it began. Psychology finally gave this a name in the twentieth century. Homer understood it three thousand years earlier. If the fighting stopped tomorrow — do you actually know how to live?
