landscape architecture; this is it

i love this movie. 千尋(ちひろ)-chihiro or the “thousand springs” we all go through when growing up. the monsters we face in society. the temptations we need to overcome. ( binging / splurging / material richness) the lessons we learn as we grow older, shapes us all, defines us. 千尋(ちひろ)さん eventually breaks free from the “social norm” and finds herself once more. such a simple story line with that many interpretations. brilliant.

don’t go longing for acceptance, and be consumed by the shallowness of our relationship with greed and superficiality. eventually, we’ll realize that a simple serving of a little happiness is all that we need.
