Over the holiday, I watched "Meet the Robinsons". I was looking forward to watching it for some time (ever since I saw the T Rex say "I have a big head, and little arms"...genius writing) It was, a really great movie. Not gonna lie either...I almost cried at the end when everything was coming together for the main character, Lewis. (Yeah so?! I'm not gonna front) =P Anyway, Lewis' main motto in the movie was "Keep moving forward". No matter what mistakes you make, or however you've failed, you must keep moving forward. Never quit, never turn it into anger at others or yourself. Turned out it was taken from a quote from Walt Disney himself.
"Keep moving forward" Yeah, I know it was probably a movie aimed at 12 yr olds, but I'll take my lessons and advice where I can get them. Seemed fitting what w/ it being the end of the year and stuff.
Somehow another year has gotten by me. It's amazing how time can pass by so quickly, while feeling so slow at times.
So like, I do this thing on any given day, where I think back to where I was one yr ago. I don't know why, but I get some kind of satisfaction out of examining the difference. Today is no different. It's just another day, but according to our calendar, dates must now end with Zero Eight, rather than Zero Seven. Therefore, I do reflect on where I was, one year ago, and how to keep moving forward.
What was only 12 months, feels like a long time ago. In that time, I had some amazing highs, and some pathetic, shameful lows. But what would a year in ones' life be w/out those ups and downs? All I can do is acknowledge the change, pray that I learned something from the progression, and of course....be thankful for all that was given to me when I probably didn't deserve it.
