It’s the season of giving thanks and being reminded to be grateful for all of the blessings we have in life.
Just like the trees, we are releasing old wounds and making the decision to apply the necessary changes in our lives with actions, mindsets, and experiences that feed our souls.
We are learning to embrace the idea of shedding our old self because there are brighter and more colorful ones within us waiting for the time to bloom.
Below is a list of movies that I think are inspirational and grounding to the soul. Many of them I’ve personally watched, and others, I may not have seen but have read the synopsis and think is a fit to the list.
