| Themes
 | Acceptance/Judgment
 | Using the final scene of Shrek (the Princess is sad
because she 'only wants oo be beautiful', and
Shrek is confused because to him she 'is beautiful') -
a link can be made to judging by appearances etc (cf Matt 23:25-28
and Gal 2:6 etc). Especially useful with
children/young people. (Sharon Copestake,
Kent, UK) |
|
| Alternate Realities,
Seeing/NotSeeing |
| Healing Power of Love |
|
Transformation/Integrity
| The princess is transformed into her
True Self - not necessarily beautiful in the eyes of the "world", but
beautiful in a more important reality. |
