By now, most of us have already seen the movie Avengers: Endgame. It's the culmination of all the other Marvel movies that has led to this cinematic masterpiece. For an MCU fan like myself, it's not everything that I had hoped for but it turned out to be the perfect ending to this decade-long series of epics. Warning: spoilers ahead.
The movie was filled with great scenes that will keep the audience's jaws dropping. However, the best scene that amazed me the most was the scene during the final battle where Spiderman was trying to keep the Infinity Gauntlet away from Thanos. He was struggling to keep himself going and out of nowhere, the strong female characters, that Marvel has built up so wonderfully, were behind him to back him up. During that moment in the movie, it showed us that there were more than just the male heroes saving the day. There were strong women behind them all.
It was wonderful seeing that it was not just Captain America, Ironman, or Thor's fight, It was Captain Marvel, Pepper Potts, and Valkyrie's fight too. It showed the audience that the burden of protecting the world from its impending doom is a burden we all share regardless of age and gender. That scene, for me, was a representation that it is not just up to the men to protect their home. It is also up to the women to lead the charge.
This sentiment can very much be relatable to our real lives. Many of us have grown up to believe that the men in our lives are the strong heroes that save the day. However, as all men must strive to be the pillars of strength, we should also remember that we are nothing without the women beside us. I am lucky to be able to say that I am one of those people who grew up around strong women. Not to take away anything from the men around me, but I have to acknowledge that I am nothing without these women. From my grandmother who fed me and took good care of me when I was young, to my mother who worked tirelessly to provide for us and give us a good education, and to my many cousins and friends who protected me and helped me out all my life. I am forever grateful.
I know that women's day or women's month already passed but I think that scene from one of the greatest films ever made should remind us that everyday should be women's day. This world of ours is not just for men to rules, it is for humans to live in.
