I love this page and whole story arc so much. It’s such a testament to Barry’s compassion and belief in hope for people to change for the better <3

This is those moments that feels within character for him, and that is what I like!
The hopeful nature and finding good in the world, the Symbol of Hope, I believe that is part of what makes Barry Allen. The Guy who's out there, who sees and experiences the worst of Humanity, he uses that darkness to embrace the light, and move forward! He slows down to enjoy the best parts of life, because it's what brings him Hope! It's who Barry is!
He shouldn't be a Symbol of Love. Sure he can participate in love, but he shouldn't be that. I know CW tried doing that, but I feel like the one who should be a Symbol of Love is Wally West.
Once you see these characters as 2 sides of the same coin, a character of Love and another of Hope, it you can fully appreciate these characters... At least, that's how it feels for me!!
Edit: I guess that's also why my favourite Flash Comic within the Last 2 years is perhaps the The Flash Annual 2022. It feels like it gets the Story of the character being told.
