Remember...

It has been far too long since my last post, and I appreciate the gentle prod from my brother Benjamin to get me back in the saddle. Got my mind to thinking about things, which sparked a thought that I’ve always loved; that thought is the power of remembrance. Our minds are such wonderful and powerful tools, and it never ceases to amaze me at what you’re able to do and accomplish with the right frame of mind and focus. The Old Horse himself always taught us this truth, “Whatever the mind of man can conceive, and believe, it can achieve.”

I understand that a clip from a child’s cartoon may not be known to invoke the spirit or portray the concept I’m talking about, but I can’t help but admit how much I love this movie and scene specifically. Many years ago it was something I watched and thought a lot about, and it wasn’t until my kids discovered it that I was able to reconnect with it. Today’s post is short, but I hope the inspiration is there none the same. We can truly become whoever we want to be, and it all starts with a simple thought. Let us all remember that we are more than mere mortals, and that our potential knows no bounds. It is in this very thought, and “remembrance”, that the true strength of the lion shows itself. Let me hear your roar!

"You have forgotten who you are, and so forgotten me. Look inside yourself Simba. You are more than what you have become. Remember who you are. You are my son and the one true king. Remember who you are....Remember....Remember....Remember."
