Meet the Robinsons


I have children, so I sometimes (a lot of times) watch movies that I would not normally watch if I did not have kids. Well, I am pretty happy about that because it gives me an excuse to watch certain movies (lol) and I get exposed to ones that I would not normally even consider. Meet the Robinsons is definitely one of the movies that I would have never given the time of day; however, I was pleasantly surprised when I got the movie for my son.

Now available on DVD, it is a story about an orphaned boy who makes a great invention that ultimately sets the course for the future. Unfortunately, things do not work out the way he would like (don't I know about that) and he loses confidence in himself before he can complete the invention. In comes the future and the adventure starts.

This was such a good children's movie that I found myself taken in by it. Meet the Robinsons is a great family movie to watch because it entertains everyone. Even my two-year old daughter was into it (she just would not go to bed). It is a motivational message hidden in animation. "Keep moving forward!" I definitely recommend this DVD as a keeper.

Squid Game Season 2 Teaser Trailer

Squid Game Season 2 Teaser Trailer Okay, I am not going to lie to you all, I watched season one of the Squid Game series by complete accident because my son and daughter were watching it, and I was curious. I think they were on the third or fourth episode, and I got hooked. It seems so long ago and came at the right time. I have been waiting not-so-patiently like everyone else for season 2. Well, the teaser trailer was dropped, and I am here for it. We have some returning characters and some new players that make it look pretty interesting to watch. The problem is the release date is reported to be November 2024. I would have rather you kept this teaser to yourself. Bombastic side eye! Check out the trailer below

I needed a moment so I wrote a couple of poems and recorded a podcast show because I just needed a moment to be.  Adjust Breathe in know that it is your time to feel what you need to feel, your time to have a moment Wanda Toby @Litevi I Need a Moment Ya’ll gonna give me a moment  A moment to feel what I feel  To sit in this pocket of disappointment  To let the letdown flow over me and settle  in the unsettled pits of my stomach To bubble and gurgle and seethe  Just need a moment to adjust or  readjust to the dimming of hope that was ignited  a glow that dared to burn too bright in a time when darkness rallied Ya’ll gonna give me a moment  A moment to feel what I feel To get it together and figure it out Am I going to fight or watch it burn A moment to acknowledge my exhaustion To cry at the loss of humanity at the choking hands of hubris Just need these few minutes before I gotta go to work - Wanda Toby Article A Psychologist’s Advice on How ...

Kanaval and Gagot by Sydney Guillaume

Image
A few years ago I posted about Sydney Guillaume, a Haitian choral composure, whose work is being sung by choirs all over the world. Through his art and talent, he is sharing Haitian culture and exposing our marvelous resilience throughout the world. Check out my previous post and his song Twa Tanbou. Kanaval is not new but always puts me in a good mood. It makes me want to get up and dance and revel in the glory of my life. The second song I want to highlight is titled Gagot which basically means a hot mess. I really enjoy this composition because I think it not only captures the essence of the Haitian people but also what life is all about. Often times, we expect or would like to live in this perpetual state of joy and happiness when in reality to live life is to push through layers upon layers of mess. On the surface, it may seem like a bleak understanding of our existence, but the miracle is in our ability to push forward and create moments of joy and happiness and fulfill...
