A king and a ranger. A fighter and a poet. Aragorn is a perfect example of how being a dichotomy of stereotypes can make you one of the most valuable people to ever live.
You don't have to accept that to be one thing means you can't be another. You can fight trolls and write songs.
You can lift heavy weights and be a chef
You can have a kind soul and be a fierce fighter.
Let's learn how we can shed cultural expectations to become the most well-rounded versions of ourselves by taking cues from Aragorn, the Elfstone, King Elessar, Chieftan of the Dunedain.
