Table Topics: Epitome of Success

The Disney animation, Moana, had a very special place in my heart. 

It was the first movie that I watched my eldest son Matthew, just before he went to pre-school class. I knew I started to lose him, as he will be less reliant on me as he grows up. So, I wanted to make that moment special for both of us. 

There was a scene, Grandma Taala's spirit appeared when Moana was at her lowest point of the journey and started to doubt herself. And Grandma Taala sang the most memorable line:

The people you love will change you
The things that you have learned will guide you
Nothing on earth can silence the quiet voice still inside you
And that voice starts to whisper
"Moana, you have come so far. Moana, listen.
Do you know who you are?".

I aspire to be like her. To me, she  is the epitome of a great life coach. She is instrumental in guiding Moana to her destiny and delivered her people from the wrath of Te Ka. And it is my dream to guide my descendants to their ultimate purpose and fullest potential, deliver them from our generational curse. That, to me, is the epitome of success.
