Different and wonderful

Too all those who say that Luke wasn't what they expected, try teaching someone who you expected to be amazing, but then turns on you and kills your dream. Tell me if you wouldn't hide your self away in shame and self pity. You would completely unrecognizable and not have hope for the future. And that is what has happened to Luke. Yes, he was amazing when he was a fresh faced kid, coming into his own as a Force user and Jedi. But after years of dealing with his failure in dealing with Ben Solo, you can't expect him to be the same, optimistic person.
And that is where Rey comes in. She is the fresh faced hope that is trying to convince him that he is needed. And he isn't apt to change right away. Living a certain way for so long becomes your lifestyle. BUT he does change in the end. He sees Rey's rays of hope for the Resistance and risks his life by sending his projection to help. He shows who he was in the original trilogies by that one final act.
