What Walt Disney World Taught Me
Maria Hernandez

have recently been blessed with the opportunity to visit Walt Disney World. It is safe to say that those few days have truly been some of the best days of my life. Being a 19 year old girl, I feel as if I have a special take on how it has affected me.

Disney is an age rewinder

Being surrounded with Disney characters and happy songs will get you feeling like a kid again. Being a 19 year old, it made me feel like I was a 9 year old fan girling over my favorite characters.

It brings out the best in people

Being at Disney World, there's always a smile on people's faces. No wonder why people go there for birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays. There's no better place to celebrate!

You'll never get so many steps on your Fitbit again

Walking around Disney Springs, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom even just for a day will definitely get you over your goal of how many steps you want to get for the day.

What is real life?

If you ever need an amazing break from reality, Disney is your place! They do such a great job at expressing their fantasy world with creativity and imagination, it is easy to forget about any of the worries of reality.

Remembering the power of hope, imagination, & inspiration

By seeing all of their shows and going on all the rides, you truly get reminded of the power of how your imagination and having inspiration can change people's lives. You realize how parents, younger kids, and teenagers can be inspired by it all and how it shows that no matter what your age is, that magic is always there.

Dreams do come true

From Cinderella expressing how a dream is a wish your heart makes and to wish they will come true to Walt Disney himself saying that "All our dreams come true if we have the courage to pursue them" Disney gives us that magical feeling to keep on believing.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement.
