At the insistence of my 5-year-old daughter, we went to see ‘The Lion King’ movie. To my surprise, the movie offered several life lessons to me. However, my favorite takeaway is the so-called ‘The Circle of Life’. It is such a big symbolic deal in The Lion King too that it gets its song.
It’s the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
‘Til we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle
The circle of life
It reminded me again that we were put on the earth for a reason. We have a role to play in the world. Can’t get lazy and give up on things. There are people that need us in their lives, lessons we must learn, and mistakes we must make. Have to take our place in the natural flow of things.
Perhaps a fictional speaking lion has got more sense than most of us real-life people. 😉
