Keep Moving Forward

OH WHAT GLORIOUS DAY

*~*THIS IS MY 50TH POST*~*

CELEBRATION!!!!

That was more for me than anything, but it seems like a pretty big deal to me. I'm amazed I've stuck with this thing for so long. And if anyone is reading this, I hope I don't bore you with all my interests and weird facts/thoughts.

In any case, today's post is not about it being big number 50, but instead about another of my favorite things. This time it's a movie. One of my absolute favorite Disney movies in fact. If you've seen it, you'll hopefully know "Keep Moving Forward" is a quote from the fabulous...

Meet the Robinsons.

It's really hard to do these posts without spoilers. Even though it's a pretty old movie, chances are there are still tons of people who haven't seen it. And while I realize the chances of them stumbling upon this blog are basically slim to none, I'm never going to risk that possibility.

Nonetheless, I'm still gonna take a crack at talking about how much I love this film.

First off it's a great family movie (for families/about family) so there were some really wonderfully cute moments. Plus with this being from Disney, there was obviously a bit of adult directed humor thrown in as well (love going back to the movies of my childhood and finding those gems). The animation (even for that time) was fantastic - the style they chose fit the movie's theme so well.

And I guess the reason I keep going back and watching Meet the Robinsons again and again is the beautiful message it sends in the end. This is where my title quote comes in.

"Keep Moving Forward" is a theme that comes up multiple times in the film and at times it doesn't make sense, but by the end the viewer is truly able to understand the meaning (within the film as well as their own lives).

It's also made known in the credits that Walt Disney himself was the one who came up with the phrase "Keep Moving Forward."

The gist of what I got from is it goes something like this.... No matter the mistakes you've made, they are now in the past and you need to keep moving forward, keep learning, and never give up because how else will you achieve what you want to?

...be it happiness, success, a family, love...

So yeah....and now I've made myself emotional....

I just wanted to share that with you; and maybe it was something you really needed to hear. If that's so, I'm glad to have helped. Now it's your turn to go with this message of hope and pass it on to others.

Find the beauty in your life and have a glorious day every day.

Much love from me.

See you again soon. ♥
