Hey guys. The movie I’ve decided to highlight at this time is Peter Pan. I remember watching this film when I was younger and really believing I could actually fly. I wanted so badly to meet Peter Pan in real life (and you might only be able to imagine the sheer joy I got as a child when I realized he was at Disneyland and I could!!! Y'all have zero clue.) Anyway, this movie tells the story of the Darling children. As they prepare for bed, Wendy, Michael and John meet and childish imp named Peter. As a reward for restoring Peter’s shadow, the Darling children are taken on a wonderfully exciting adventure to Neverland, Peter’s home. They fight pirates, save a princess and explore the wildness of the world. This movie was released in 1953 and starred Kathryn Beaumont, Bobby Driscoll,, and Hans Conried as the leads. This was also directed by Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske, and Wilfred Jackson

Okay so with this reading, What I’m seeing here is that in order to honor my inner child, I need to make sure that I understand when things have ended and work to let these things go. I also need to know that I am not alone in doing this work. I have people with me who will help me get through the rest of the work I need to do. These people are friends and family and especially important to me is the fact that these friendships have required endurance and perseverance to keep going. There have been challenges in this area but I have learned that these have given me inspiration and passion to keep these friendships going. Another thing I have learned through all of this is that even if I am leaving behind the things that I found comfortable and easy, I have become someone who has taken action to understand and clear my thoughts and in doing this, I have become someone who can make what seems like chaos into something ordered and sensible and on top of that I can feel safe in taking accountability and look at where the disappointments in my life have been by my hand. There will be challenges and sudden changes in my space, but I need to know that I am not alone in growing both in my material abundance and more important, I am not alone in growing spiritually and emotionally as well.
