Hello !!!
In this opportunity I want to present you several phrases, which for me have been teachings of one of my favorite animated films: Kung Fu Panda. I will do it throuhg wrinting three post, since the story is developed in a sequence of three films, where the protagonist goes through a series of events that lead him to rediscover himself and reach his most desired dream, which is to become a recognized Kung Fu warrior.
The film is based on the story of a Panda Bear (called Po), adopted by a Goose (Mr. Ping) when he was a baby, who owns a noodle restaurant .
The first film (part 1) takes place in the Valley of Peace a land in ancient China, where Po, is chosen by the master Ooway (ancient Galápagos tortoise) as the Dragon Warrior that according to a legend known among the villagers, will save the valley. For this, he becomes the student of one of the most recognized masters of Kung Fu, Shifu (red panda), who in principle is not convinced that Po is the Dragon Warrior. As the story unfolds, Po has to fight against prejudices and even his own insecurities to defeat an old student of Master Shifu, Tai Lung (Snow Leopard), who for revenge wants to destroy the valley and obtain the title of Dragon Warrior (that he thinks he deserves). On his journey, Po meets his idols of Kung Fu, "the furious five," who are also students of Master Shifu: Tigress (South China tiger), Mono ( golden snub-nosed monkey), Mantis (Chinese mantis), Viper (green tree viper) and Crane (red-crowned crane), and with his perseverance and innocence manages to gain the respect of these warriors and their master (Shifu).
Next, I present the phrases of great importance to me and the related scenes (images of the film):
"One often meet his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it"
"Your mind is like this water my friend ,when it is agitated, it becomes difficult to see, but if you allowe to settle, the answer becomes clear"
