Things you never knew you never knew


Our family took a trip to Gulf Shores, AL last week. It was a great vacation, and it afforded us the opportunity to listen to LOTS of Disney movie soundtracks. I'm a big fan of cinematic orchestra, which has always aided my enjoyment of Disney movies. One song stood out to me on this particular trip, because it is one that I have known for a long time and a lyric jumped out that resonated with some of the ideas I've expressed on this blog.

You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew


Thank you Pocahontas (Disney that is, since I have no idea if she said these sorts of things in real life). Special thanks of course to the composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz.
