To Disney or not to Disney?

[liberal_at_heart]

61. exactly. Going to Disneland or Disney World does not mean you automatically turn into a zombie.

I don't know what people have against entertainment. As humans we need an emotional release especially during hard times. We know times are hard. We see it every day in our pay checks and in the every day struggle to pay for food and mortgage/rent, and medical bills. They went to the movies during the Great Depression and often times the most popular movies were the ones that gave people hope that they would one day be able to feed their children again. All of a sudden we're not allowed to have hope anymore. We're not allowed to take hope from religion and apparently we're not allowed to take hope from entertainment either. If you take hope in anything you are hiding from the reality. Well, the truth is to find the strength to keep fighting, to keep surviving most people need hope. people need to remember what it feels like to smile and laugh and have fun. For some people it has been years since they have had fun or laughed. People do this in many ways. If people don't need to watch a movie every once in a while or go to an amusement park every once in a well then good for them. That's okay with me. But I refuse to believe that just because I go to an amusement park I will turn into some zombie who can't think for myself.
