A church I follow has an app (Crossroads Anywhere) where we journal together as a community, and one of the things we journal about are things we are thankful for. I wrote these for this week's prompts from the app....

"Think of a recent movie."
"In a recent movie (show), I felt...."
On the anime Attack On Titan, I am learning how villains from Season 2 were motivated based on their upbringing, and how protagonists can become less favorable folks based on choices made. It's not for everyone, but is an intriguing watch.
