ok but it’s kinda cool that 22 was literally facing a catch-22 — she didn’t want to start living on earth because she didn’t find it appealing, yet couldn’t discover what made life appealing because she never actually experienced it
“This! This is just water. What I WANT is the Ocean!”
You can’t truly appreciate life, until you see it for what it is.
That’s what that anecdote was about. The fish was already in the ocean, but wasn’t satisfied because it felt that the ocean was supposed to be this big, grand thing that was so impressive.
The fish made the ocean out to be this grand supreme entity, but couldn’t appreciate all the aspects and parts that made that “water” the ocean.
Joe was so focused on his “purpose” and making his mark that he didn’t appreciate the simple things and the small ways that he had made a difference to hi students, community, and family.
Look for the “sparks” for life. The little and big things that make life amazing.
Such an amazing Christmas present, thank you Pixar and Disney! Merry Christmas 🎁
Just finished watching the movie “Soul”. You know that expression when someone says “oh she got an old soul”. Soul number 22 is legit an old soul. Notice how the other young souls are number 2,345,404 or something like that.
