What Did I Learn From Pinocchio As I Approached 30?

 Many of us may have known Pinocchio before learning how to read and write. Pinocchio, the wooden child whose nose grows as he lies. Pinocchio was one of the first books we read after learning to read. Do you remember reading Pinocchio as an adult? Have you seen the animated film recently? Like I guess. I recently watched Pinocchio by Guillermo del Toro on Netflix and took notes that I want to share with you.

 After a children's story-writing workshop, I attended last month, I learned that being away from the world of children does not mean adulthood and that returning from time to time and letting ourselves to this world can help to renew. After this event, I couldn't ignore Pinocchio's movie when it appeared on Netflix.

If I may remind you, Guiseppe is a carpenter and a man left alone in this world with his son. His son is inauspiciously passing from this world before he even reaches draft age. Giuseppe was devastated by his loss. He made a wooden boy toy. When he makes a wish, the wooden toy he carved in the shape of his son comes to life.


Pinocchio causes his father, a carpenter, a lot of trouble in the story's sequel. The carpenter and his new son must go on many adventures as they struggle to get along. I took two life lessons from this story:

“We become slaves to things which we desire more than anything else.”

Life is a complete lesson for hawk students like us. We cannot completely balance our spiritual sides and worldly sides. Also, If we desire any worldly thing more than anything else, it becomes challenging and the worst: we become the slave to it. 

Wish for something with deep belief, and let it to the time.


“Maybe we landed in the shark's stomach to find what we were looking for.”

It happens a lot. Is it familiar to you? 

That worst thing happened to you. You missed the flight. You spent a lot of money. Now, if you want to change your ticket they only repay you 60% of your payment. Also, the next flight after 4 hours later. How unlucky you!

Later when you dropped in, you're hearing that 4 hours before, unexpectedly downtown had a super windstorm and 4 tourists were sent to emergency services.


The final scene of the film follows a similar storyline. Although it wasn't a completely lovely surprise, it accepted a sincere father's wish. What could possibly be worse than being inside a shark's stomach? It could change the worst circumstances in our lives. But as a result of everything, we now have what we wanted or needed before.

It really helps me. I was transiting in the opposite direction when I had to leave for an exam from home. The weather was stormy and rainy. Even though I was angry inside, I went with it. After three stops, I switch buses, and I got to the test building earlier than my usual direction.

They are all just minor, well-known facts. Although I am unsure of how healthy it is to draw conclusions from anything I watch, this movie literally makes me happy.


I hope you watch and enjoy it!

Searching for the Answer to 'How Can I Be Better?'

Resim
  We found ourselves trying to keep up with the speed of this age, while the age we live in has to keep up with us. We can access information and education more reasonably and easily. In the time we want to improve ourselves, skip a class, and rise, we are getting away from our souls' step by step.  During the day, we begin to deal with minor tantrums, disappointments, and feelings of not being able to achieve. Things are starting to evolve in a direction we cannot control. Nobody stops time. Might be we choose to stop ourselves, or maybe we don't. We're starting to stagger. When we want to take a step, we gonna trip and fall. Finally, we begin to ask things from other angles. Bingo! We see that the things we think we can reach are missing us. There are things we slip through our fingers, and there are times we forgot to live. We have forgotten that we are human, that we are not lifeless. We want to find where we got lost and fix it. We are struggling, we do not hesitate to

The Proven Fact: Exercise

I start my new article by bringing to mind that I practice no scientific practice, I am not a scientist, nor they are all that the therapist said. I allow my own 'being in a better mood' journey to increase my limits of discovery, and I want to share that with others who have been on the same path as me.  This journey begins with truly wanting this journey. And embarking on an adventure isn't just about collecting images or gifts. Research, learning and using what has been learned is the necessity of this adventure. I accept the learning and what will bring that journey into my life. I will be linking the supporting resources or you can find them at the bottom of the article. Today's topic is relevant with some facts. (*) For oneself, my favourite thing is to listen to nature and the environment. When I go to a beach, I like to lie down under the sun and listen to the sound of the sea, the flight of the birds and the sounds of the stones. Those are little but enjoyable

Whenever I Need, Art Helps Me

 I was at college and struggling with some problems. My friends told me that there is one thing I enjoy doing: painting. Why am I not starting to paint? Yes, I had distanced myself mentally from painting. I thought I have no talent or time for hobbies.  I made a decision one day to start. I purchased a book and a set of watercolors. I looked for simple painting concepts, fashion and animal paintings, and later I colored tiny images.  Some days, I desired to paint something I saw, so I got my brush for it and returned to my chair. I only had one brush then. I'll never forget a memory. It was that my housemates, who are always my supporters, were outside. They came and gave me two brushes. They are my favourite gifts ever received! I only remember the smiles on my friends' faces. They were happy to see that I am going to be better. I believe I cried at that time. With the pandemic and the new global crisis, jobless days began soon after graduation. My parents were at home dealing
