Without spoiling anything, I would recommend people watch the new Pixar/Disney movie called Inside Out. It’s basically about the development of a young girl, and how she handles a “transition” in her life. It’s very psycho emotional. I found myself constantly drawing parallels between my faith reconstruction, and the concepts in the movies. I think you will come away uplifted by the movie. For me, it was a message of affirmation of my growth as a person, as well as the healthy role of sadness, anger, caution, etcetera in helping us become whole individuals….
Not to be missed!!!
We saw it on Monday night, and I can’t stop thinking (and crying) about it. So good, and so applicable! I agree with SD– go see it! DH thinks it should win an Oscar, and that I should be “Joy” for Halloween.
I am a bit late to the game, but I finally was able to watch this. Minor spoiler alert
The “deconstruction” of parts of her certainly does ring true. I just wish it was as easy to put humpty-dumpty back together again.
It’s an amazing movie, and a great analogy of what it’s like to deal with huge life change and loss, even if it’s just the natural phenomenon of growing up. Every time I look for a faith crisis parallel, growing up seems to fit the bill. hawkgrrrl wrote:It’s an amazing movie, and a great analogy of what it’s like to deal with huge life change and loss, even if it’s just the natural phenomenon of growing up.

I’d like to see a boxed set of “Inside Out” and Thomas McConkie’s book about adult development/faith crisis.
A few months ago I was trying to be silly with my 10 year old daughter. She told me that her “goofball” island is still functioning but that she is also growing up and being more mature. I immediately knew what she was trying to say (having seen the movie together, we were both familiar with the analogy) and did not feel so put off that my little girl is getting too cool to be silly with dad.
