How Far I'll Go

I love Disney movies, particularly the princess-animated variety. I enjoy them for the fairy tale and good versus evil plot. 

Recently, I watched Moana. What a fantastic story! I felt as though I was watching myself on screen. This young girl has a desire to leave the confines of her hometown and explore. 

I remember from an early age how I had this same desire. Most everyone in my family is from the same area. They marry someone from that very area. They build a house in that area. They live their whole lives in that area. 

I knew at 13 or 14 years old that I could not follow suit. I had to see what else was out there. As I watched Moana, I felt as though I knew exactly what this girl was all about. 

Here is the song that Moana sings about blazing her own trail:
