then read the writing that comes afterwards.
OK, so we have in this short film animation, a continuation of what possibly happened to the "Tin Man" after he received his "heart" from "The Wizard Of Oz". Of course the Tin Man went on merrily on his way, right? Well, we see here that it was only soon after that he mishandled what was given him.
Here he is walking down the road minding his own business, pleasant as he can be, then suddenly he notices a "pretty robot" and instantly gives her his heart.
Listen kid, while you think of this story, the same thing "will" happen to you if you're not "very careful" and listen to wise advice given you!
Well, surprise-surprise, the girl robot misuses the Tin Man's heart. Possibly the heart given her did not provide all she wanted, so she plays with the heart, summarily abuses it, then hurls it as far away from as she can throw it! Interestingly, the heart, upon being thrown, smacks another girl robot on the head injuring her.
Yet, girl robot number two, even after being damaged by the hit, treats the Tin Man's heart with remarkable care and concern, a marked contrast to girl robot number one. Soon she gently gives the Tin Man's heart back to him, for him to protect and do with it what he will.
What was the difference between Tin Women numbers one and two? Well, the second girl robot was kind and thought of others before herself. ... After this that girl robot and Tin Man walked away into the sunset together. (Or, actually, I think I added the sunset.)
It is interesting how life is made complicated by our decision to give our hearts to the wrong people. For some of us it has taken "years" for it to dawn on us that love is a decision, and that giving our hearts whimsically to the first attractive person we see is out-right dangerous. What is more, it is never healthy to "lose ourselves" in other people. It leaves us debilitated, broken and "unable" to give in the way God wants. (Translated, this means "co-dependancy.
On a final note, understand that each day the "Teen Daily Reading" selections will be including short films of this nature almost constantly. This is to assist you to think of many kinds of things that happen in life, and why it is important to use wisdom and listen to your conscience when making important decisions.[Writing itself was written by Jim Hogue, MA, MFTI /
