Power rangers - being omniscient is the only way to be
We only get one lifetime, huh? Why not make it count for a million?

when we were little kids my cousins and I would come up with dozens of may-believe games, a lot of them included reenacting famous cartoons , tv shows , movies and even tv programs . I remember one of them causing a particular kind of chaos around the house lol and that was Power Rangers , we’d all pick a colour and put on the closest thing to the outfit that we can find , grab any two sticks we can find and take off causing a mess all over the place , We lived in a four-story house set right in the middle of a piece of land, surrounded by tall trees that made it feel like a tiny forest which was a great material for wild imagintion. The house had four separate apartments, plus a roof and a ground floor that were shared spaces where everyone could gather . The thing is now that I'm thinking about it 20 years later I have come across something I’ve never noticed before . I was such a shy kid you know ? the kind that would feel very awkward in the simplest non-awkward situations . But In those times when we pretended to be something else whether power rangers , famous WWE champs , CIA agents , totally spies or the Winx saga fairies I wasn't shy anymore .I was fierce , fearless , loud , chaotic , carefree ,confident , wild and wildly untamed . Have you ever watched the amazing millennial romcom " Never been kissed "before ? there was this scene when in the Lit class they were discussing the deeper meaning behind Shakespear's masterpiece " As you like it " and how Rosalind finally acquired the courage to confess her love to Orlando but only when she was Ganymede , that was when Sam quoted something i haven’t been able to let go of ever since . "When we're in disguise , we feel freer . We do things we wouldn't do in ordinary life ". well even if you haven't watched the movie and the closest you've ever been to Shakespear is thinking Romeo was an idiot , you probably know the saying "Fake it till you make it" ? . What if that's what it's all about ? what if we most of the time genuinely have no damn clue what we're doing or what we're ought to do ? what if we start pretending we do ? will we break free beyond all the fences of limitations, expectations and perfectly planned rules ? will we finally be free of the weight of the conventional ? And if in disguise we’re finally free to be , why not buy a million costume ? ..
