Wild Child.

When I was a kid "Where the Wild Things Are" was my favorite book and even still now it is one of my most coveted. I use to perceive the story to be about a kid named Max who imagines a magical forest surrounded by monster like creatures, rules over the Wild Things as king, and returns home to a bowl of hot porridge.

While watching "Where the Wild Things Are", I was searching for the meaning of the film, the message Spike Jonze was throwing out. Even a few days after, I would sit and try to figure out what this freaking movie was about: "Why was it such a dark message? Is it about the battle between man and himself?...this thought, that thought." When all along the message was there, right in front of me. One of the Wild Things simply states in the film:

"...We forget how to have fun."

As adults we get so caught up with endless responsibilities and Mt. Everest like stresses, that sometimes we forget to just breathe & let loose. Whether you're plagued by loneliness, money issues, significant other drama, self esteem problems, and so on, JUST BREATHE and have a little bit of fun. Let's not get too tied up with this economic turmoil and disaster like mentality: Life ain't too shabby when you appreciate the things around you.



"BE STILL!"
Childhood is calling.
