So, for my story there is an underlying religious theme. The main character is over 5,000 years old but trapped in a 13 year old body. She comes off weak, sensitive, and anxious at times and sometimes I think it doesn't work according to her mental age and the spiritual connection she's suppose to have as guardian-of-the-universe-to-be. But then I thought about Christ and, perhaps I've been misreading the Gospel all these years, but there were times when it seemed like Christ was anxious over the idea of being crucified.
So what does strength mean to you? Is it all physical? Does it mean having a thick-skin; going onto a battlefield fearlessly? Laughing in the face of danger? Is strength characterized by being fearful, but facing those fears despite personal anxieties? Is it doing something you dread but you do it anyway for the benefit of others?
How would you define strength? Where does strength come from? Does it come from God? Experience? Selflessness? Pride?
