The television show known as Robotech depicts the lives of somewhat average people rising up into new challenges, and defeating those challenges to survive. The cartoon starts off with a young man hoping to stay close to his childhood friend and mentor by becoming a pilot for a fighter squadron. In the cartoon, aired in 1985, the main character achieves his dream, however marginally and begins to improve to the point of becoming a hero among the other characters. Parents always tell their children that they can achieve their dreams if they put their mind to it, as though hoping in some way that their own children can do what they cannot.

My goal was to be so good at flying, that I would be asked to fly in space to another planet, another solar system, or even another galaxy. For several years of my...
