Stars Wars, Stargate, and the Tolkien Universe are foremost some of my most beloved fandoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although I have different reasons for why I love each one of them I believe what truly draws me into the Star Wars Universe is the world-building. If I had the skills I would build my own R2D2 droid, I have my own lightsaber and I really love the mythology behind the Jedi faith. Even though I know it&#8217;s fiction I truly feel a spiritual connection when it comes to the Jedis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I am not here to go into a whole philosophical debate on how the Jedi faith has parallels to Christianity. It&#8217;s just as simple as it brings me joy on a personal and spiritual level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tolkien universe has always fascinated me ever since I watched the animated films back in the 80s. Again it has to do with the amazing world-building that Tolkien created, even though I am short and the opposite of thin I was always in awe at the elegance and timelessness of the elves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Stargate it fuels my love for all things Science Fiction, and even more so it fuels my love for history and mythology. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And of course, I would be remiss to not mention Star Trek, one of my favorite things about Star Trek is not only the storytelling but the introduction of the holodeck I always imagined a world where such technology existed so I could live out any story I wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I sometimes wondered why I love Star Wars so much, although there are many fandoms that I really love there are a few that I love above all others.
