I saw a bumper sticker the other day that said, "This was DEFINITELY NOT one of my 3 wishes". So, I kind of got offended. Im in this place, in this world, in the same city, on the same street as this dude, and by him saying he soooo does not want to be there, it makes me feel like I am a loser for being happy I am here.
At some point this dude purchased said sticker then took the time to put it on said something. And that in itself is saying what? ..... he has the energy to do all that, but he's going to whine about what he's NOT getting? And really, I think it's about when you're little, and if you had 3 wishes what would you wish for. And getting older and realizing or seeing that what you thought you wanted as a kid, you are not getting, or are not doing, or all of this is nothing like what you thought it would be.
And really, this makes me sad. Because to think this way is only keeping you back and not moving you forward. The past is the past.
And of course, no Thurs morning would be complete w/o Disney quotables....
Adult Simba: I know what I have to do. But going back will mean facing my past. I've been running from it for so long.
[Rafiki hits Simba on the head with his stick]
Adult Simba: Ow! Jeez, what was that for?
Rafiki: It doesn't matter. It's in the past.
[laughs]
Adult Simba: Yeah, but it still hurts.
Rafiki: Oh yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or... learn from it.
[swings his stick at Simba again who ducks out of the way]
Rafiki: Ha. You See? So what are you going to do?
Adult Simba: First, I'm gonna take your stick.
[Simba snatches Rafiki's stick and throws it and Rafiki runs to grab it]
Rafiki: No, not the stick! Hey, where you going?
Adult Simba: I'm going back!
Rafiki: Good! Go on! Get out of here!
Anyway....
