In keeping with the theme of the "Simple Things Challenge" from Enchanted Oak, I chose the video Mary Poppins featuring my favorite song from the movie, "Feed the Birds." I have always, always, always loved this movie! It is my favorite. To me it is so very moving!
Yeah, I could analyze why this movie means so much to me, but I will save that for another time. Does not take a brain surgeon to figure out why. The children, the innocence, the love that is shown, etc. A place that I would just of loved to have been whisked away to forever!
I do not have many "simple things" I can reflect back on in my life, but when I was trying to think of what I could post that was at least peaceful to me, this song came to mind.
Sadly, I can only recall this being the one time as a family we all went to see a movie together in 1964. Still, I cannot place my mum or brothers at the movies with us. But, I do remember my father with me. Maybe we did not all go together??? I do not actually remember sitting through that first showing, but I do recall the ride home and how excited I was after seeing it. At least I knew I was excited about something!
I hope you enjoy it and please check out Enchanted Oak's challenge.
Thanks for sharing this sweetie.
