Wonder Woman endured because she became more than a collection of powers, a costume or a recognizable symbol. She came to represent ideas that people still value: truth, courage, justice, compassion, peace and the belief that strength should be used to protect rather than dominate.

Two characters can both be grieving and react completely differently. One cries until they cannot breathe. Another cleans the kitchen at 2 a.m. because staying busy is the only thing keeping them together. One goes silent. Another becomes angry at everybody in the room because anger feels safer than admitting they are broken.

Fear of failure. Fear of criticism. Fear of embarrassment. Fear that somebody else is already better. Fear that your first attempt will not match the polished picture in your head. Fear that you will plant something, work hard to nurture it, and discover that nobody notices the harvest. So instead of planting, you keep preparing to plant. You keep researching, adjusting, revising, comparing, and waiting until you finally feel certain enough to begin.
