The ragged pieces of ideas and thoughts of my attempt to live a life as a contemporary monastic in the urban city of Singapore..
Walt Disney is a familiar character to me because my second brother did a school project about him when I was quite little and I read that paper!! He was a man and leader of vision, integrity and character. A son of a deacon, his upbringing & later independent life was lived with godly principles and he had only one wife. Besides Jesus, the next person whom I think lives (although in a different sense) must be Walt Disney. Can't imagine the world without disney movies, Pollyanna, Donald Duck, Disneyland and the Mickey Mouse Club.
I read during lunch time with interest a comment in a book about Walt Disney. Ray Bradbury a writer speaks of what Walt has taught him ...
" if you want to accomplish something big in life, don't hesitate. Go to the edge of the cliff and jump off. Then build your wings on the way down".Wow, now that sounds like suicidal advice ... but its so so inspiring.
