i've rewound the movie to listen to this song maybe 5 times so far. 2x in spanish, 3x in english. i like the feel of this movie in spanish but i think the english will be more emotionally connective

guys wtf encanto is so good this is the best textbook on IFS i've ever seen

encanto knows three of The Secrets: your parts have developed superpowers as compensation for trauma, and, after you heal the trauma you get to keep the superpowers, and, it's not about the superpowers

the plot and the powers and everything are *barely* metaphors my god i love this so much

there are no villains in encanto and nobody at any point did anything wrong. every single character was trying their best at every point in the plot

every single character in encanto wants something good and is trying to get it as hard as possible

@meditationstuff uses the phrase "myopic selfish desperation" to talk about "evil" and i love it, so concisely descriptive; here i'm focusing on the myopia meditationbook.page/#54

[more serious spoiler warning] towards the end when abuela says "i broke the family" and mirabel responds "we are a family because of you" she is not contradicting her, they are just both right
