Once upon a time, in the Marvel Universe, lived an incredibly powerful, yet angry and misunderstood creature called The Incredible Hulk. Although he was a part of the mighty Avengers team, Hulk found it hard to control his inner rage, and often ended up causing destruction wherever he went.
One day, while on a mission with his team, Hulk found himself trapped in a strange world with no way out. He was alone and scared, and his anger only got worse. Suddenly, he heard a voice calling out to him, ‘Hey big guy, calm down!’. It was none other than Tony Stark aka Iron Man.
‘What’s going on?’ Hulk asked.
‘We’ve been teleported to an alternate dimension where our powers don’t work. But we’ll figure a way out,’ reassured Tony.
Hulk was skeptical, ‘Why are you even bothering with me? You know how dangerous I can be.’
Tony responded, ‘Because we’re a team, and we don’t leave anyone behind.’
As they wandered through the strange land, they ran into Loki, the trickster god. Loki, who loved stirring up trouble, offered Hulk a deal- he would help Hulk get out of this alternate dimension if Hulk would help him defeat his brother, Thor.
Although Hulk hated Loki, he felt he had no choice but to accept the deal to get out of this world. As they both went to confront Thor, they were caught in a trap, and it was only then that Hulk realized he had been played by Loki.
Hulk was at his angriest point, but then, he heard a voice, ‘Hulk, you’re not alone.’ It was Captain America. Tony had contacted him for help, and he came just in time to save Hulk.
‘Why did you save me?’ asked Hulk.
‘Because we’re a team and we take care of each other,’ said Captain America.
For the first time in a long time, Hulk started to feel grateful and cared for. He realized that even though he had a tough exterior, deep down, he was just like everyone else- in need of support and love.
From that day on, Hulk started to work on controlling his anger and befriended many of his teammates. He also started going to therapy and practicing self-care, like meditation, reading books, and taking walks.
Hulk’s journey taught him that self-love and accepting support from those who care about us can go a long way in our lives.
Takeaway: It is okay to feel anger or emotions, but it is important to learn how to manage them and seek help when necessary. Friends and teammates can be a great source of support when going through tough times, and self-love and self-care are essential for personal growth and happiness.
