Disney


If I were to be a Disney character I would Simba. Simba's life is defined by tragic events that he rises like a phoenix from his own ashes. The death of his father leaves him with introspection and a theory for life, "Hakuna Matata." This is something that I believe in to an extent. I think the world is to consumed by the small things in life. Hakuna Matata indeed. How is it that we fret over what color to wear to a prom when slaughter occurs in Tibet. The little things in life should not weigh us down, but makes us more grateful for the blessing that lace our lives. Simba doesn't realize who is he is and consequently runs away from a potential destined to bloom. He is loyal to his friends and his mother, while accepting the demons in his own life. These demons shape him into the king the others see naturally within him; however, it takes his life being run by hyenas and his home burnt to ashes until he comes into his own.
