The #MyLittlePonyMovie - Blast from the past is still a Blast!! #sponsored

BB shares the return of the My Little Pony series thanks to Allied Contigo.  Facilitated with movie screening tix and movie merchandise (toys) it was easy to fall in love again with these characters. Opinions son de BB and her Bunch. 




HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Before continuing, let Babushka start with an apology.  Apparently the #MyLittlePonyMovie is not the "return" of the characters porque The Grands knew all about them.  Silly BB was thinking of the The Trio and the first time she had heard of My Little Pony. And saw them. Everywhere. Bueno, you can't keep a good story down because this generacion is now enjoying them tambien, pero like todo hoy en dia it's bigger, mas intenso, a ready to take your breath away. 



A dark force threatens Ponyville, and the Mane 6 – Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity – embark on an unforgettable journey beyond Equestria where they meet new friends and exciting challenges on a quest to use the magic of friendship to save their home.

INTRODUCTION
Few animated characters inspire the love and loyalty of the colorful characters from My Little Pony. For kids and adults alike, there’s a timeless magic to the friendship of Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Fluttershy – the flying, frolicking, and fearless foals who make a 21st-century leap to the big screen in MY LITTLE PONY: THE MOVIE. In this first full-length theatrical feature, all the Earth ponies, Pegasi, Unicorns, and other magical creatures of Equestria branch out into new colorful worlds, confront a new antagonist, and find new pals.
Joining the “Mane 6” that fans love from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic television program are new characters, including Tempest Shadow, a conflicted and devious pony unsure of her place in Equestria; Grubber, Tempest’s wise-cracking hedgehog soldier with an endless appetite for tasty treats; Princess Skystar, a royal and excitable pony longing for adventure; Queen Novo, Skystar’s protective mom, who has to learn to loosen the reins on her daughter; Captain Celaeno, a danger-courting cockatoo and leader of a ragtag gang of adventurers; the rogue-ish and charming Capper, a street cat who knows all the angles; and the Storm King, a mysterious – and possibly dangerous – wizard whose evil plan involves purloining some pony magic.

The film has an all-star voice cast including Emily Blunt, Kristin Chenoweth, Liev Schreiber, Michael Peña,Sia, Taye Diggs, Uzo Aduba and Zoe Saldana. The movie features original music and songs performed by Sia, Diggs, Saldana, Chenoweth and Blunt. Lionsgate is releasing MY LITTLE PONY: THE MOVIE in theaters nationwide on October 6, 2017. "

BB's an Original, but Ms Olivia is the Real Thing.

Saw her at the bus terminal and knew right away I was seeing my future self.  Older but oh so stylish, she meshed the retro past with the boldness of today and gave it a flair of her own.  She was marvelous.



Traveling with her two daughters and her granddaughter, you could see she had loved and lived and continued to do both with grace and a natural air.  I was all excited with plans and strategy for the Hispanicize 2012 conference and was in my own little world- and then I saw Ms. Olivia who reminded me what my real world should be.

Here was a woman who had found her way a long time ago, was comfortable in her skin, whose very essence exuded "this is my style, this is my life, this is me- and I like me".  Her beauty - inner and outer brought tears to my eyes.  Have you ever sensed the presence of true beauty?  The knowledge of self worth and the radiance of self acceptance- THIS is true beauty  and Ms Olivia embodied it.

I had to take a picture of her, to remind myself of what is possible, to remember what I aspire to be,  and so I shyly approached my new idol to ask her permission.  Ok si, I hear you- "BB, You- Shy?!?  JU SO FONII!!!"  And you'd be right 99% of the time to doubt, but this was the 1% of our human race who had actually attained self love and BB was in awe and humbled. 

She graciously heard my petition, smiled, and told me she'd discuss it with her daughter.  Her daughter of course wanted to be assured of my sincerity and asked why I wanted to photograph her mother.  I explained how I wanted to capture her mother's style and love of self.   Apparently she believed me because she came looking for me when we had a stop over and I didn't give her a chance to change her mind.

Ms. Olivia was pure joy when she posed for the camera as was I that she had allowed me the honor. I believe her daughter had known her mother was exceptional and thanked me profoundly for noticing.  But how can one not notice?  It would be like not noticing the Lady Moon as she shines and shimmers, not noticing her beauty naturally escaping and filling our nights. No, I'm the one who is thankful to Ms. Olivia for her example and hope this does her justice as she inspires us all to embrace our lives and ourselves. 



Babushka Besos a todos.  Cuidensen.
