Everyone has a hobby, or a passion. For some, it's music, painting, or gardening. All of those are wonderful passions. For me, it's Disney. Watching every Disney movie multiple times is what brings me joy in life. My family vacations? Disney World or a Disney cruise. Yes, Disney is typically seen as a form of entertainment for children. But I'm an adult, and I love it. There's nothing wrong with that.

Famously known for creating the Disney company and imagining up beloved characters like Mickey Mouse, Walt Disney is a hero of mine. He too believed that Disney can be enjoyed by all, even adults. He's a wise man, and one of his famous quotes says that adults can find happiness in Disney. "You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway." If the imagineer of all that is Disney says that his creations aim for not only children, but adults too, then why is it still so wrong to love Disney?

To those that still believe adults taking Disney vacations is a waste of money: have you ever been to Disney World as an adult? There is still nothing more magical than walking into the park and looking down Main Street and seeing that gorgeous castle. Not only is the park itself magical, but I truly love seeing little kids so happy when they meet their favorite character.

No, the rides are not just for children. There are in fact thrill rides too. Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Test Track, Expedition Everest (one I'm still too scared to go on) and The Tower of Terror are just some examples of rides that adults could fully enjoy. Most of them to this day I still cannot ride because they either freak me out or I'm just too scared of heights!

One last thing about the parks, the food. I could go on and on about my beloved Mickey waffles, but there is just so much more too! Dole Whip, one of the most loved foods in the park, Mickey bars, turkey legs, everything inside Main Street confectionary, the list never ends. Who wouldn't want to dine like Belle and the Beast in their castle, or Cinderella in her's? Disney truly knows how to get their food right.

Let's just get to the heart of all things Disney, their classic cherished movies. Everything about them is just amazing. From the beautiful princesses to the more funny characters, who wouldn't want to live their life as a Disney character. Yes, I can belt out every song in every movie, and I love it! Why wouldn't I want to single along? Plus, watching Disney movies on a sick day is truly the only thing to make my throat less sore. With the addition of new characters such as Moana, one can truly feel all the strong independent feelings within themselves. We also cannot deny the fact that characters like Flynn Rider, Mushu and Mike Wazowski make us laugh!

Overall, Disney isn't just for kids. So next time you meet a Disney fanatic and you want to say they shouldn't be one, instead ask them why they love Disney so much. Don't try and destroy something someone else loves just because you believe it's not age-appropriate, find out why they love it and maybe you can learn to love it too.
