This tragedy broke our hearts and we grieve for the little ones, teachers and principle and their families and the entire community. We need to remember that we are battle born. We will never stop loving one another, caring and reaching out. We are strong and will never back down against the evil and injustice in this world!

I am having one of those days when my body does not want to cooperate with my mind. Sometimes, despite my best efforts in my diet, I still experience inflammation. Unfortunately, this does not mean that I can stop moving. On days like today, I need to motivate myself and Dory from Finding Nemo is always there for me. Remember when Dory and Marlin were descending into that deep pit in the ocean? She started to sing "just keep swimming, just keep swimming". I used to keep a little plastic toy of Dory close by so I could be reminded to just keep swimming! I also often have to remind myself that it is all right if I am slow because at least I am moving forward.
Maybe more of us need to be like Dory. She was curious, joyful and full of life. I find myself to be like Marlin, fearful of trying new things, a little uptight and sometimes needing someone like her to hold my hand as I swim down into the unknown.
If I need a good laugh, I can listen to her try to communicate with whales.
I think that many of us can identify with at least one character in a Pixar movie or any movie and sometimes that can motivate us to keep on trudging towards victory no matter how we may feel! Is there a cartoon/Pixar/movie character that you can identify with?
