Jared Padalecki Blogs About Fans' Comic-Con Tribute to 'Always Keep Fighting'

Jared Padalecki is all smiles while making his way back to Vancouver, Canada on Sunday (July 12).

The 32-year-old actor landed back in town after a trip to Comic-Con with his Supernatural co-star Jensen Ackles to promote the upcoming season of their CW series.

At the end of the Comic-Con panel that day, fans in the audience held up candles in support of Jared‘s Always Keep Fighting campaign. He has opened up in the past about his own battles with depression.

“To anybody and everybody that had ANY part whatsoever in the Always Keep Fighting Hall H tea light event. As I travel back to Vancouver from San Diego Comic-Con, with my partners in crime Jensen Ackles and Mark Sheppard, the enormity of what happened is finally starting to sink in….” Jared wrote on Facebook that night. “I am beyond moved. I feel so blessed, and grateful, and honored to be a part of the magical Supernatural Family.”

Sitting on that stage in Hall H, I initially mistook all of the lights for cell phone cameras. It’s difficult to discern specific shapes and faces with all of those stage lights shining on you (and, it’s quite intimidating up there, sitting in front of 6,500 people!!). Then, when I had a light given to me with an explanation of what it was and what it stood for, I was (and am still) gob-smacked.

Thank you.

From the very bottom of my heart and my soul, thank you so much.

I will never forget this day. I will never forget the love that I felt, and still feel.

And, to everybody who held a light for me, please know that I hold my light for you.

Though I happened to be the one sitting on stage, I am but one small light in a see of thousands. TOGETHER, we can and will make a difference!

Keep letting your light shine. I will do the same.

And, keep fighting.

Always Keep Fighting.
