There are certain things in this world that, when you hear it, when you think about it, when you see it, it gives you immediate gratification, and Star Wars has always been one of those things for me. My life would not be the same were it not for its influence and lessons I carry with me in everything I do. For me, Star Wars is the love I have for my father, my brothers, my friends, and my partner, whom I met through our shared love for Solo: A Star Wars Story. It’s about holding those you love close and fighting to keep them closer. Love for a Master or Padawan love for your partner love for your cause love for your friends love for your family.

But even deeper, Star Wars is about love. At its core, Star Wars is about family, regardless of whether you’re related by blood or by choice.

I was invited to watch The Last Jedi on opening night and The Rise of Skywalker on its preview night after pulling an all-nighter to rewatch every single movie that came before with all of my closest friends. Star Wars has always been a huge part of my life our tradition of watching the movies over the holidays began with him taking me to see The Force Awakens opening weekend in 2015. He is the person who shared his love with me and has granted me passage into this wonderful world he grew up in. Apparently, I had heard what was going on in the living room, crawled downstairs, and was standing at the doorway in awe my father noticed and invited me onto the couch to let me watch with him (and my mother got mad at him, of course). My earliest memory is sitting on the couch watching Revenge of the Sith drinking a purple Gatorade. Hayden Kirkeide, fan and Beilert Valance cosplayer

Yes, it’s about a galactic struggle, but more importantly, it’s about the hope that is passed down from person to person as a promise of the better days that will come, someday. There’s a reason why Leia’s only line in Rogue One is the simple utterance of “hope,” and it’s because one word can and does encapsulate Star Wars as we know it. In the times when I thought I had nothing, I had Star Wars it gave me the hope to continue and aim for better and bigger things. Years later, her return in the comics as the leader of the syndicate felt almost reflective of my own journey to confidence and self-acceptance. I saw myself in Qi’ra left behind on Corellia I also saw her making the best out of her situation, rising up the ranks of Crimson Dawn and exuding such confidence no one would think to question her.

Han had always been my favorite character, but this time I was introduced to someone who still impacts me to this day: Qi’ra. Shortly afterwards, I went to see Solo: A Star Wars Story. Though the movie ended and the Resistance was all but defeated, they remained hopeful, which in turn gave me hope to carry on.Ī few months later, I moved home feeling a similar sort of defeat as the Resistance and I wasn’t sure what the future had in store for me. I went to see The Last Jedi on opening night by myself and it changed my life. In December of 2017, I was living 10 hours from home for my first year of university and had only one or two friends to say I was lonely would be an understatement. I loved it, but it didn’t quite stick with me until the release of The Last Jedi. In my own Star Wars journey, I became a fan after binge-watching the original trilogy so I could see The Force Awakens in theaters.
