Movie Nights

You watched Kung Fu Panda for the 1000th time tonight. You giggled at Po and the never ending slapstick he provides. The Dragon Warrior that never really fit in. All the time wanting to be more, knowing that his story was bigger than the situation life had thrown at him. 

Kinda reminds me of my hero. He's a kid  that finds himself in a very similar situation to Po. Many of his physical attributes keep him from being all the things he wishes he could be. Many of the people around him feel as though he doesn't quite fit in, but like Po, this kid never gives up. He chooses to see the good in everyone and assumes that the bad is just a misunderstanding. What a great way to live! Too often I let my skepticism reek havoc on what I should really see. Family, friends, brothers, and sisters. 

Like Po, Spirit, you see the potential in others, and I envy your perspective. As always you teach me lessons that I have trouble learning on my own. And like your friend Po, I think one day we will kneel at your feet and recognize the true measure of your character, and the breadth and depth of your obedience and understanding of the plan of your Heavenly Father.

For now, know that I am watching and keeping watch, until you are ready to take the reigns.

Love,

Guts
