Soul

A beautiful idea…

 

I admit I missed this film entirely when it was first released last summer, which is noteworthy because I really like Pixar as a film company.

They produce extraordinary entertainment and still manage to cause me to think of deeper truths behind the stories.

And “Soul” just won an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

Maria Shriver was the source to remind me to watch this Pixar film:

“…the overall message was that we aren’t here for one sole purpose or one sole thing. We don’t have to spend our entire lives looking forward to that one purpose, that one mission, or that one love. If we do, that makes us miss all the beautiful things that life has to offer us every day.”

Take an evening. Watch this lovely, emotional movie and ponder its message.

There are certainly worse ways to use your time.
