Special Short: Adults Only Disney Moments

Consider The creative adult is the child who has survived. ~ Ursula K. Le Guin Each month, Succeed and Soar shares a short video chosen to lift the heart and spirit, awareness and humanity.  This select video [below] presents surprising adult themes slipped into Disney children’s films. In preparation, here are reflections on adulthood,  The day the child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives himself, he becomes wise.~ Alden Nowlan A child becomes an adult when he realizes that he has a right not only to be right but also to be wrong.~ Thomas Szasz We have not passed that subtle line between childhood and adulthood until we have stopped saying ‘It got lost,’ and say, ‘I lost it.’~ Sydney J. Harris Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives in the realm of entertainment towards the ideals and objectives of normal adulthood.~ Walt Disney Succeed and Soar!

2024 Beyond the Sky’s Limits 4, Journeys

Itโ€™s easier to invent the future than to predict it. โ€• Alan Kay * How high is the sky? On August 16, 1960, Joe Kittinger rode a balloon to the edge of Earthโ€™s atmosphere. Up there, where the temperature is -94 degrees Fahrenheit yet blood would boil, he stepped off the platform and plunged 102,800 feet, twice as high as jetliners flew. His speed: 614 miles per hour, approached the sound barrier. Earthโ€™s atmosphere extends 6,200 miles above the planet. After that, the atmosphere blends into space. In jumping from over 19 miles above the Earth, Kittingerย  reached beyond the skyโ€™s limits. Fifty-two years later, he helped Felix Baumgartner repeat that experience. ย Watch Joe Kittingerโ€™s jumpย [3 minutes]. The theme for this fourth of four “Beyond the Skyโ€™s Limits” posts is, โ€œTravel.โ€ย Photographs from myย โ€œSkyScapes Galleryโ€ accompany this series. Here are five favorite quotes, All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware. โ€” Martin Buber It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.ย  —ย  Ursula K. LeGuin A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles. – Tim Cahill Not all those who wander are lost. — J.R.R. Tolkien We too can be pioneers. Not by opening up vast new geographic frontiers, but rather, by finding more thoughtful ways to approach those already discovered. — Sven-Olaf Lindblad Succeed and Soar!
