If you're anything like me, a good Disney movie is the perfect way to bring you out of a stressful time. We held onto that world of magic that we experienced as kids. We lived in a world where "happily ever after" was feasible and love will always found us. Even though they were supremely cheesy, I think it's too easy to forget over the years that these movies taught us a lot.
1. Fight for what you believe in.
Just because not everyone thinks the same as you, doesn't mean that you are wrong. If you believe in something, don't be afraid to fight for it.
"The flower that blooms with adversity is the most rare and beautiful flower of all." -Mulan
2. Never stop dreaming.
When you stop dreaming and aspiring to be better is when you have lost everything. Dreams can come true if we work hard enough to make them a reality.
"No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dreams that you wish will come true." - Cinderella
3. It is ok to be different.
We all have our flaws. Just because we are different doesn't mean that we aren't good enough. Everyone is unique and should be celebrated.
"Like so many things, it is not what is on the outside but what is inside that counts." -Belle
4. Follow your heart.
We think so much with our heads sometimes that we forget what our heart is telling us to do.
"Listen with your heart, you will understand." -Pocahontas
5. Friendship is priceless.
Sometimes going through life with a friend is most rewarding. Don't take those relationships for granted because they are truly a blessing.
"You've got a friend in me. If you got troubles, then I got them too. There isn't anything I couldn't do for you." -Toy story
6. Family is what you make it.
Being biologically related to someone doesn't make them your family. A family is what you make it and the relationship that is created.
"Just take my hand. Hold it tight. I will protect you from all around you. I will be here don't you cry." -Tarzan
7. The heart of a child will always be with us.
No matter how old we grow, never lose the child within you. Adventure makes our lives worth living. Loosing the child within is something that happens to a lot of us, and without it, life is never as glorious.
"Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, dreams are forever." - Tinkerbell
8. Love will always find a way.
We forget this a lot. Love is one of the most powerful things we have and is the closest thing we have to magic. We can't give up hope and have to remember that it will always come to us eventually.
"Even if love is full of thorns, I would still embrace it, for I know that in between those thorns this a rose worth all of the pain." - Sleeping Beauty
