Hopefully some will remember the Movie - "The Never Ending Story", released in 1984. Many fantasy stories have thoughts or points to ponder within the story. I was going through a divorce at that time and was feeling pretty overwhelmed with the responsibility I knew I had raising two children by myself. This story gave me hope, strength to carry on in spite of knowing I would be on my own. I took notes (watched the movie 3 - 4 times) so I could remember the thoughts contained within the movie. I share them with you now as I believe the truths there still remain.
- Don't let sadness overtake you.
- Never give up hoping
- Don't quit; always keep moving
- We have to hurt to heal
- Never give up and good luck will find you
- If you do not feel your own worth, it will destroy you. Confidence in yourself rids many a problem
- Many have come face to face with their true selves; Most run away from what they truly see about themselves
- There are no boundaries to our fantasies - but when we cease to dream, we cease to live.
- Dreams do not exist by themselves. They need the hopes of the human heart to exist.
- Fantasia is the world of human fantasy. Every part, every creature is a piece of the dreams and hopes of mankind. It has no boundary; lose your hopes and forget your dreams and Nothing grows stronger. Nothing is emptiness and despair.
- If you have no hopes you become easy to control, you have no power. The power behind nothing is hopelessness.
- You are a part of a never-ending story. You are important - Always; So whatever happens in life, Never give up.
- Fantasia lives inside us all - It is hopes, dreams, and wishes. You can have as many as you like. Fantasia is endless. Drown your fears - In your hands is the breath of a new day.
