What's Finding Dory REALLY Saying?

"There are no walls in the outside world."

What's Finding Dory REALLY Saying?
Pixar

Something that I love about "Children's" movies is that they usually have an underlying message they try to get across to the audience. Finding Dory's: Wild Animals DO NOT belong in captivity. Shout out to you guys, SEAWORLD.


The sequel to "Finding Nemo," "Finding Dory," takes place in a Marine Life Institute which perfectly captured the lives of the animals that are kept in captivity. Dory ends up trapped in a glass case amongst tons of other underwater creatures, showing hers (and their) desperate attempt to escape. She ended up in the Marine Life Institute while she was on her way to finding her family. As she was doing that, two humans reached down into the water, and as usual, humans being humans, took her against her will and shoved her into a cooler. She later ends up in an exhibit reunited with one of her long lost friends, a whale named Destiny, who has sadly lost her sight and ability to properly navigate around, due to being crammed in an environment that was too small for her to grow. It's devastating because it demonstrates her loss of natural skills she could have developed in a wild environment instead of a glass case. Destiny constantly runs into walls and other man-made items in her exhibit which causes her to have a high level of insecurity in the outside world. When it was time to approach the outside world, Bailey, another whale, says to her; "There are no walls in the ocean."

This is something that happens to millions of other wildlife animals trapped in captivity. I'm glad that mainstream media finally took advantage of this subject and captured it through a popular movie that will reach millions.

Oh, and by the way, Finding Dory was 5/5 stars for me. Highly recommend it!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
