Universal Love

Different languages exist for various reasons, some of which I have no idea and others I can make educated guesses as to why. It’s like having a ceiling over our head telling us what is possible and how far we can reach. Then, we go outside and realize we can view the sky and be among the stars by flying. Beyond that, there is a place that exists farther than what we can see with our eyes where a rocket ship can fly us to the moon and different planets.

If the main language at Disneyland is music, people are United beyond the realm of "normal" senses of understanding which makes sense as to why it is referred to as “The Happiest Place on Earth”. As we are happy when United by music, language and the appreciation of it. We feel music with our heart, see music and may or may not know how to read it, hear music and can determine how we'd like to interpret it, etc.


It brings great satisfaction to see people of all kinds being united through music.

Star Bucks by Suzie Sateri

I went into the Starbucks at Downtown Disney and I asked if I could get a discount for having a Disneyland Annual Pass. I was told I could not get a discount at that Starbucks but I could get a discount at the Starbucks inside of Disneyland. The reason being that the Starbucks (there are two of them) in Downtown Disneyland is a corporate one and the one inside of Disneyland (and there is one at California Adventure) is a franchise.

Taking a Break From Disneyland

Just to share some thoughts...

I appreciate people who have remained in uniform though their clothing might not be/have been testament. Uniform meaning, people who don’t change character and remain the same at all times. The truth is, we are ever changing human beings who can only strive to be more consistent and true to who we are at all times through any given opportunity. Other than that, good, honest intentions and a true heart can carry us through each day.

Just some questions I’ve been pondering...

What happens when someone falls down whether they are in uniform or not? Is it not a process to get back up? And sometimes a process in which we need help from others?

How do we know when someone is kneeling that they are not praying?

The Magic in People

Once upon a time there are people who have or will walk into your life and change it forever. They change it not because of who they are, but who you are when you are with them. You can find freedom in people. People who stand by you when you express yourself like a dark character and people who stand by you when you express yourself like a star. There are also people in between who love you just the way you are, either way. Most of the time, they are one in the same, just as you are.
