Steve's favourite animated film is The Incredibles. And, while that might be a great movie, my favourite part of it is actually not in the movie at all.
It's a short animation that features as an extra on the DVD. A song by the name of Boundin', and one verse from it has always hit a note with me.
When I found myself talking to Steve recently about needing to stop pressuring myself to do more, more, more, he reminded me of this verse:
Now sometimes you’re up and sometimes you’re down,
When you find that you’re down well just look around:
You still got a body, good legs and fine feet,
Get your head in the right place and hey, you’re complete!
Love it. Especially when it's sung by a gorgeous animated jackalope!
(I really wanted to put up a link to it on YouTube but, alas, copyright rules don't allow such a thing.)

Sometimes we need reminders, don't we? I was having a very flat day yesterday and one of my friends' rang to say she had breast cancer (my third friend over two years. The other two, Ned and Bev, died last year.) We shouldn't need reminders, but we seem to.
Thanks, Megan.
I love that one too, funnily enough I was thinking of it the other day but couldn't remember which DVD it was on!
