Inspiration?

I saw Autism: The Musical tonight and will be seeing it again in a couple of weeks. After my second viewing, I'll post a review.

I found the movie (documentary) very inspiring. Not because of the challenges the autistic children overcame in order to put on their show, either.

In 1988, Oliver & Company was in theatres, and I saw it with my family. In 1994, The Lion King came out. I saw it in the theatre twice in one week - once with friends and once with a child I was babysitting. And in 1999, I saw The Prince of Egypt with my best friend. These movies were all just as inspiring to me as was the movie I saw tonight.

It is the fact of these movies, their very existence, that inspires me. That someone crafted and created them. The music is inspiring, beautiful, amazing. There is truth inside each movie. And that inspires me.

I don't know yet what I'm inspired to do. But I feel hopeful in a way I haven't for a long time.

And that is good.
