Cenerentola

I shall begin this articolo unconventionally, da speaking of something personal. This anno has been very rough for me in a lot of ways. The roughness has impacted every single sphere of my life, from my finances, to my job, to my Amore life (which remains laughable), and to my very health. I have been really sick. I relate to the Aladdin of the 1992 film, even più so now, than when I first shook his hand in 1992.

Merida really needed an eye-opener. If she let her sensitivity get in the way of everything else again, she could've potentially kissed her friendships with Pocahontas and Mulan goodbye. Incidentally, Shang would probably still despise her. Truth be told, her mother, Elanor, was right. She WAS più sensitive than she realized. The young archer was glad she was being taught how to corner her wild emotion. She wrote down everything Pocahontas told her.

"Every time we realize what's bothering us after cornering it, we come up with positive solutions." Pocahontas taught. Merida wrote everything...
