Wonder

Have you ever seen Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium?

I distinctly remember the first time that I saw this movie.  I cried.  Quite a lot in fact.

There is something inherently magical about having someone else help you find your innate worth.  It seems to me that unless we have someone in our lives who can be the instigator, the one who sees something greater in us that we see in ourselves.  That person then helps us to open up our hearts so that we too can see our great worth.

There are two things that this movie made me want to do with my life.  First, it made me want to find my own "sparkle".  It made me look inside myself and find out what made me unique and special.  I am pretty sure that this is one of the things that helped me start to gain a sense of uniqueness and self worth.    Second, it makes me want to be a Mr. Magorium.  It makes me want to see the goodness in others and help them find their own potential.

I love the sense of whimsy that exists in this movie.  If you haven't seen it, I would strongly encourage that you do.
