Millennials and Gen Xers remember Voltes V.
Five pilots.
Five machines.
Different strengths.
Alone, they were good.
Together, they were unstoppable.
We saw it again in Justice League.
And then came The Avengers on the big screen.
I still remember watching it and thinking,
“This is it. This is what teamwork looks like.”
Different powers.
Different personalities.
One mission.
Real strength does not start with “I.”
It starts with “we.”
Yet somewhere along the way, we were told:
Be independent.
Be self-made.
Do not rely on anyone.
So we learned to carry everything alone.
We learned to say “I’m fine” when we were tired.
We learned to struggle quietly.
Until life reminded us of the truth.
The biggest wins rarely happen solo.
We need people who see our blind spots.
Who lift us when we are drained.
Who tell us hard truths.
Who stay when things get heavy.
Asking for help is not failure.
It is strength.
Choosing partnership over pride
is not surrender.
It is strategy.
Because teams do more than survive.
They change the world.
And the strongest generation
is not the one that stands alone,
but the one that learns how to rise together.
