How to Train A Dragon.

I watched "How to Train a Dragon" this evening with the boyfriend. I don't know if it did this to anyone, but the show inspired me somehow. And that's pretty tough because I'm hard to inspire. It's amusing to think that an animated film could inspire me this much.

I was touched by the dragon's fierce loyalty towards Hiccup (The young viking). I wish I had someone or something who was this fiercely loyal towards me. I am scared that I will die someday without anyone fighting for me. It's... A scary thought.

I was also very inspired by how the show portrayed the fact that violence only promotes more violence. It's not like in Math you know. It's not like negative + negative = Positive. In real life, it's more than that. Sometimes you need to use your brains and not your muscles to do the job.

I also was inspired by how seemingly weak Hiccup was to everyone else... But in actual fact, had a really strong personality and persevered even though everyone was hating on him. This was the most inspiring part of the movie for me. Recently, as you all know now, everything has been going wrong for me. And I know I've felt VERY suicidal in many parts of my life so this was something I had to learn. That no matter how hard things get, you should always persevere. Because you're meant to do something much much more than this.

(Hi Beth, I know life has been pretty hard for you lately as well so this is for you too. Be strong. You are meant for a greater purpose in life. Get over all these now and stay strong. Don't give up.)

I also liked a quote from the movie which is commonly used in the real world. "Don't try to be anyone else" (I think this is what they said in the movie? But I cannot remember so it's the gist of it anyway) I think it's so important for people to let their own personality shine through and not allow other people to influence you to be what you were not meant to be. I think everyone has their own purpose in life and it's just not right to steal someone else's purpose. Right?

Anyway, all that inspiration aside...

I really think that everyone should watch this movie. It's actually suitable for anyone of any ages. And it's a really great movie so I think it's going to be one of my all-time favorite movies!

I really loved the show.

Hehe.

Toodles.
