Who Are You? - This Is Me! - The Greatest Showman




This is me. The one who's sometimes up, and sometimes down. The one who changes her mind more often and faster than she would want to. The one who loves the world and everything in it, and sometimes hates it just as much. The one who wants to do so many things at once, feeling energized and pumped with life, moving mountains and building new stairs to heaven, but I am also the one who is getting tired, who wants to lay down and take a step back from trying to do everything at once.

This is me. The one who wants to change the world, to build a better place where happiness is not for sell, where health is not for rent, and where love doesn't have a schedule. The one who looks at the world and sees the enormous beauty that it has, and sees what it can be, and wants to bring that vision to life. But I am also the one who feels discouraged, and full of fears, who's afraid she won't make it, but then she's afraid of what she can do.

This is me. The one who fights so much to keep that dream alive and tries to find ways to make it true, but also the one who is overwhelmed by everything around, by the fight, and the hopelessness and the fear that this won't come true.

This is me. The one who gives up trying when people try to stop her dreams, when things get hard and they seem impossible, when time is passing and the world doesn't stop to wait for her and her plans, but I am also the one who rises stronger, hoping harder and wishing with a higher intensity to fight, to make things work, to make her dreams come true and transform the world as she's seeing it.

This is me ... the one who wants a better world ... and I am starting with me. It's not easy, but if we all give up, there won't be anyone left to change it, and I can't imagine a world where my plans to make it better won't work.

Fall down, lay on the floor, feel drained and give up for a second, a minute, an hour, a day, a week, a month ... take as long as you need, but at some point remember your dreams, your hopes and your plans, and get up, and fight to get them, because no one else will fight for you, because no one else will have the exact vision that you do ... so change the world ... you have the power in you.

"The Greatest Showman" with Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson and Zendaya - I don't care how historically accurate it is, I only know that this movie made my heart smile, and my eyes cry, and feel an entire range of emotions that left me wanting to see this movie again. Don't think or care about anything else, just enjoy the movie and see where it takes you.
