A Thank You Letter to My Comfort Show & Character
Submitted by Will Chen
During tough times, everyone has a way to help cope with their difficult situations. It is important to have that outlet to let these emotions out and get comforted. For me, a show I always turn to is Pokemon. I used to love this show as a kid and watching it gave me a smile every time. Although this may be a kid’s show, the lessons involved were instrumental to developing my character. Ash Ketchum and the journeys he has been on with his Pokemon have educated me on the principles of life.
Aside from the valuable lessons Pokemon has taught me, the show always has a way of making me laugh no matter how down I am. Pikachu and his antics will always make me cheer up. Now that I am grown up, I still have not let go of my obsession with the Pokemon franchise. It has been with me all my life, through ups and downs. What I am writing here is a sincere thank you for supporting me in being the very best. Deep down, I am still a 10-year-old kid heading out on a journey to catch them all.
