Introduction Some of my favorite family vacations when I was little were when my parents would scrounge up a few dollars and we would take a drive up to the Catskill Mountains to stay at a cheesy truck-stop motel for the weekend. We would have so much fun in those tacky tourist towns, filling our bellies with junky carnival food and participating in corny activities like going to a haunted house. We discovered our most treasured family moments sharing in these spontaneous silly experiences. Since meeting my husband, Scott, and creating a family of my own, I find that my parents' whimsical view on life has been deeply engrained into my own visions about living. Life is meant to be enjoyed today. If you have picked up this book, it means you have a spark of interest in living an extraordinary life. You are curious about existing outside the proverbial box and you are ready to take the first step towards living your dreams. My intention for this book is to inspire people to live beyond their own self-created limits and to venture outside the boundaries of the norm, because in that space magic exists. How do I know this? I know this because I experienced magic first-hand when my family of three took off for one year to travel around the globe. Through our own personal journey, I have developed this guide to walk you, step-by-step, along the path of manifesting your dream of world travel. Why? It's simple. I want to share the magic. This guide is your ticket to living your own magnificent story. Don't fear. I will hold your hand throughout the whole process as we maneuver through the stages of world travel manifestation. Even better, you will learn from all the many hilarious mistakes we made along the way so you can develop plenty of confidence in your own world travel capabilities. If we can do it, you can do it too! It doesn't matter what life situation you are in, world travel is for EVERYBODY. Your financial state, relationship status, job position and family stage have no bearing on your ability to travel the globe in style. All you need is to ignite your imagination and make your dream a reality. So, let's dive in!

Download or read book Wild Minds written by Reid Mitenbuler and published by Atlantic Monthly Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A thoroughly captivating behind-the-scenes history of classic American animation . . . A must-read for all fans of the medium.” —Matt Groening In 1911, famed cartoonist Winsor McCay debuted one of the first animated cartoons, based on his sophisticated newspaper strip “Little Nemo in Slumberland,” itself inspired by Freud’s recent research on dreams. McCay is largely forgotten today, but he unleashed an art form, and the creative energy of artists from Otto Messmer and Max Fleischer to Walt Disney and Warner Bros.’ Chuck Jones. Their origin stories, rivalries, and sheer genius, as Reid Mitenbuler skillfully relates, were as colorful and subversive as their creations—from Felix the Cat to Bugs Bunny to feature films such as Fantasia—which became an integral part and reflection of American culture over the next five decades. Pre-television, animated cartoons were aimed squarely at adults; comic preludes to movies, they were often “little hand grenades of social and political satire.” Early Betty Boop cartoons included nudity; Popeye stories contained sly references to the injustices of unchecked capitalism. During WWII, animation also played a significant role in propaganda. The Golden Age of animation ended with the advent of television, when cartoons were sanitized to appeal to children and help advertisers sell sugary breakfast cereals. Wild Minds is an ode to our colorful past and to the creative energy that later inspired The Simpsons, South Park, and BoJack Horseman. “A quintessentially American story of daring ambition, personal reinvention and the eternal tug-of-war of between art and business . . . a gem for anyone wanting to understand animation’s origin story.” —NPR
