Disney has always been known for making films that can relate to real life. In the movie Pocahontas, the Indian princess is forced to choose between two ways of life. Her choice is represented in her song, "Just Beyond the Riverbend". In the song, Pocahontas must choose between two courses of river. The smooth and gentle path, or the unrealiable, ever-changing course.
Many times in our life we are faced with important decisions. These choices can utterly change the course of our lives. One bad decision can permanatly devestate your outcome as easy as one good choice can better your future. Most of the time, when facing important decision, people don't always look ahead. Many don't understand the effects that one choice can have on a person now or in future years. My advice for everyone would be to consider all possible outcomes before making an important choice. Consider how the decision you make will effect yourself and others. Make a choice that will not only positively effect your life now, but many years into the future.
While some decisions can create major changes in your livestyle; others are simply difficult because of personal taste! Today, I went prom dress shopping. When I left my house this morning I knew in my head the dress I wanted; and I was confident that they would have my perfect gown. Over the past few weeks I had literally stalked this dress and had warned my friends about buying it. So, when I got to CBs in Lancaster, I was ready to purchase my perfect prom gown. Fortunatly, they had my dress... however, it was 8 sizes too large! So, being that prom is too close to order a dress from the internet and expect to have it altered, I was left to skim through the selections they had availiable. Because the store is so wonderful; everything I tryed on, I loved! I can honestly say that I tried on at least 9 dresses that I fell in love with! Unfortunatly, you can only wear one to prom. So I was left with an important decision. Should I choose the fun animal print, the flirty pink number with the lovely back, or the teal dress that my mother loved (this is also the dress that my mother loved a month ago while I was trying on pageant dresses!)? I had no idea what to do!
But, with the help of my wonderful consultant, I narrowed my selection to two beautiful dresses. I had to choose between the pretty teal dress and the black and whilte giraffe print gown. Although the decision between two prom dresses doesn't sound like a huge deal; I had to consider every possible outcome of my decision. If I were to choose the teal dress, it would be pretty, but it wouldn't have made me feel like a princess. However, when I wore the black dress I felt stunning. So finally, I made a decision and the black dress is all mine! So, like I said earlier, my advice to everyone would be to consider the outcomes of your decisions. Whether they be big and life-altering, or small like prom dress shopping; think before you act!
Happy Saturday! Like I mentioned above, today I picked out the perfect prom dress! I'm so excited! Rachel, my sister, also picked out a dress that looks lovely on her. I wish April would hurry up and arrive because I'm dying for prom night! Anyway, I think today Rachel, Lindsey, and I are going to have a girl's day and watch movies! But first, I think I'm going to take a little nap. I'm dead tired.
Here is a picture of my dress from the internet! I have the one with the pink tie! In my opinion, it looks better on me than in the photos; But enjoy anyway!
