Happy Little Disney Lover Rant Coming Right Up: It is always interesting to me when people hate on others for what they love. In particular, I see and hear a lot of that happening in relation to Disney. Walt Disney World is such a special place to my family and where we go to spend peaceful quality time together. We can leave the world behind and be togther doing things we all love, sharing the fantastic meals, taking the silly pictures, riding the best rides, making magical memories. Happy memories with my family is what I love most…..So, I don’t typically care what others think about it. But, being called out for being a Disney World fan recently does make me realize how little most people understand about visiting the Walt Disney World theme parks.

In my opinion, if you leave the Magic Kingdom miserable, that’s on you. If you are unhappy walking to the skyliner at the end of the day, you did something wrong. If you sit in O’hana watching fireworks while you eat dinner with your family and don’t feel good in your soul, I can’t help you. You tried too hard, you didn’t prepare, or maybe you overprepared and couldn’t manage all of your expectations. But, there is no reason that you should walk away from there unhappy. Tired? Absoluety. But unhappy? That’s crazy talk. Barring some unforeseen circumstance that is out of anyone’s control, of course. If you relax and just be in the moment, it is impossible to not enjoy yourself. The food is good, the drinks are great, the rides are fun, the shows are entertaining and the atmosphere is magical. And, the company I keep is always my favorite people. You don’t have to like it or understand it even, but if you are going to disparage someone for loving that, you might need to self reflect a little. Signed, your local Disney Lover 🙂
