Keep Moving On

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

*yes this is my first blog post friendster ~.~, I’m not very active in this site, but maybe I’ll be more active…? haha we’ll see ;)*

Keep moving on!

So,
I went to the movie today, this afternoon, after very long absent from
my weekly schedule of going to the cinema. I watched the cartoon (yes,
I love watching cartoon~) "Meet the Robinsons" (Walt Disney presents),
and it was a great cartoon, which has delivered some important messages
to me. The story wasn’t very well arranged since there are quite a few
scenes which are-in my opinion-delevoping too fast than it should’ve
and therefore resulted in shocking effects and lessen the score I’d
give to the movie (as if it’s that important :p), but overall this
movie is a must-watch.

This story gave me a very meaningful
message, which was written by Walt Disney himself… "Keep moving
forward". One of the character from this story (I forgot who, since I
don’t have a super Einstein brain like Lewis *the kid who has the main
role in this cartoon* do) said something about failure is better than
success, since every time we fail in doing something we’re going to
learn something and we won’t learn anything from success (although it’s
nicer to be successful all the time), and I agreed with this statement.
The good thing about this movie is that the Robinson family has a very
positive view on failures, they even have a "cheers" together after
Lewis failed in repairing the peanut butter-blackcurrant jam gun and
encouraged him to try again later, and told him the story of the
prototypes (failures) of the time machine, on how the machine was made
once, twice, hundredth times, five hundredth time, and so on, before
the first spic and span time machine was successfully made. They even
reminded me about one of Indonesian’s aphorism… "Failures are the
postponed success".

"All
the adversity I’ve had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have
strengthened me… You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick
in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you. We keep moving
forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths. All your dreams can come
true if you have the courage to pursue them.Girls bored me - they still
do. I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I’ve ever known."-Walt
Disney

   

By failing we’ll be
able to learn a lot, we learn not to make the same mistake, we get
experience, we learn how to get up, and try again for future success.

   

"I failed in getting the scholarship…"
"I failed in my social life…"
"I failed this relationship…"

We make a lot of failures everyday, and nothing in this life will always go as smoothly as we’ve planned.

And this movie taught an important lesson in life: when we fail, get up and keep moving on!

 

two other quotes that I like>>>

And I’m moving on now :)
