Sailor Moon in Random thoughts

It's amazing that when I watch it now, I see it so differently than how I saw it so many years ago. I will be honest, I went a really long time without watching it at all. Like, somehow I didn't need that any more. And that couldn't be farther from the truth. I need it just as badly now as ever. For goodness sakes, I have been watching it since junior high! Anyways, I see the characters quite differently than I did. My love for Sailor moon, hasn't changed in the slightest. I thought for a while that maybe, Jupiter was no longer my favorite scout, however, I fell in love with her all over again. And it quickly reminded me of the person I wish to be and the person that I once was. And maybe I wasn't as much like her as I wanted to be. I was a bit more like Mars. Her jealousy consumes her in the first series. She is so jealous of Sailor Moon, that it pretty much turns her to a bully. It never used to bother me. (her behavior) And now as I watch it, it is almost shocking. And it reminds me of some of the issues that I once had. I used to let jealousy consume my life also. Moving on to Sailor Mercury. This is also quite different. It used to drive me nuts that she was the favorite among the men in my life. I used to be like, her? really? I thought there wasn't a more boring and awkward scout. And now, I appreciate her. She is still awkward to me, but now it's in a good way. And I have a new found respect for her. And I now idolize her intelligence. (once again with the jealousy, right?) Sailor V. fun loving, bubbly, wonderful and optimistic sailor V. Love her now and always. And she's a bad ass. No feelings have changed on her. Now, I watched Stars Episode 1, and wow, so late in the series, but I also watched that differently..... I have a new found respect for Neptune and Uranus. When I first watched it, I was under the impression that being homosexual was a sin. And that the writer was only putting them in the show for controversial purposes. I was thinking to myself, I'm not even sure that I watched the scene with them at the aquarium. I really didn't have a memory of it. And now as I watch it, I'm more like, hey what a cute couple, they surely are in love! Sailor Pluto and Saturn. Not much to say there. They both take my breath away, give me chills, and bring tears to my eyes. So, with all of this being said. I've come to realize, your beliefs, thoughts and attitudes, can have an impact on how you watch television. Keep an open mind. It's the healthiest thing you can do.
