The first time I watched The Lion King, I was five years old, on my dad's laptop, and on purchased discs. After that, I watched "The Lion King" with my parents, and gradually it became a family-friendly regular project. Although I would cry every time Mufasa fell off a cliff, it did not prevent it from becoming a part of my childhood. The warmest and happiest memory.
"The Lion King" is really a classic movie, it can slowly penetrate into your life and grow up with you.
Every time I go to Disney to watch the fireworks, I feel very moved. I am most looking forward to and most afraid of hearing the music of "The Lion King". When I see the image of Simba playing on the castle, I will feel goosebumps all over my body, and I can't help but burst into tears. The first time I watched The Lion King, I was in kindergarten, and now I am almost thirty, not only an adult, but also a middle-aged person soon. When I was young, I thought I was Simba too, and even thought that I was smarter and braver than Simba, and I didn't need to go through all the pain to become a king. Time slips away little by little, and the possibility of having a future self is also diminishing little by little. Now that the music is playing, it is always Simba who becomes the king.
But in the hot tears, you can still hear Rafic saying "You are more than what you have become", are you still willing to believe that you still have unlimited potential? Every time my life is frustrated, I choose to go to Disney to continue my life. When I took a photo with Rafic, I felt that I was also the lucky one who was consecrated by the old master, and I was also the destined little lion. You are more than that, you can be better, this kind of tenderness can't be found anywhere else, and it can only be given to me by seeing the big Rafic since I was a child. If one day I feel like this, maybe I'll play "hakuna matata" to myself, it's okay, I'm not the only one in the world who chooses to escape.
I'm luckier than Simba, my dad who has watched The Lion King hundreds of times with me can continue to watch the new version of The Lion King with me. It's just that time has passed by him, and he has inevitably changed. One day, Dad will leave me too, and every time I hear Simba shout "Help" in the valley, I feel that helplessness and pain. There is a proposition about parting, which I don't have to face at the moment, and I don't know how to face it yet. Simba always grows ahead of me, reminding me how the process of life is to be lived.
"The Lion King" is really a classic movie, maybe because everyone can find the right answer about their own life here.
