Some people on the Disney Plus discussion page are saying they’ve seen Frozen 2 one hundred times. Gosh, I’d sure be tired of anything by then. It’s tempting to say no to something so outrageously popular … without really looking inside. So I looked.
Elsa sings a stunning song called Show Yourself. My mouth dropped open as hers soared, so I had to watch it again … and again. Happily it was three times not a hundred.
Elsa is searching:
Show yourself
I’m dying to meet you
Show yourself
It’s your turn
Are you the one I’ve been looking for
All of my life?
Show yourself
I’m ready to learn
Ah yes, the search for that special someone – a human being who will join with me and make my life complete. It could be a lover, or one’s child, or a famous person I’m enthralled with. It could be a community of like-souled people, in whose company I feel at home.
Show yourself
I’m no longer trembling
Here I am
I’ve come so far
You are the answer I’ve waited for
All of my life
Oh, show yourself
Let me see who you are
You are the answer to my question, the solution to my problem, the happiness that has so often eluded me. I’ve been searching so long for you.
Come to me now
Open your door
Don’t make me wait
One moment more
It has to be now. No more delayed gratification, which might only bear fruit when I’m 75. I need love now. I need to be held. I need to hold.
***
And then there is the “Ah hah!” The realization that I’ve been looking in the wrong direction. My savior has been abiding within … all this time. Would someone please give me a mirror?
Show yourself
Step into your power
Grow yourself
Into something new
You are the one you’ve been waiting for
All of your life
Oh, show yourself
Shall I?
Shall you?
What shall we show the world?
