Little mermaid

This is one of my favorite movies ever. I think it is because I feel so indentify with the main character. I have the feeling very often that I don’t belong in my family, I mean that when I look at them they all seem so similar, they share the same ideas, behavior and I don’t. I have always looked for something else, something different. It is like my family is always living in the safe side and I’m always trying to find adventure and taking risks. Rejected by others, I had to adjust to feel like I belong. But little mermaid didn’t, she went against everyone even against her family to find her happiness.

Families are always trying to make you follow what they did; they want the younger to be an extension of themselves. If you think about it, it is so selfish and unfair. They don’t want you to commit the mistakes they did, they want to do better what they couldn’t, it is like they want you to be some kind of perfect hero.

Never before had anyone challenged their family like Little Mermaid did. That is what I love about this film. Normal is not always the right way to go.
