HAKUNA MATATA

The song is based on Timon and Pumbaa's common catchphrase in the movie, Hakuna matata, which is a Swahili phrase. The two main comedy characters in the film, (Timon and Pumbaa), talking about moving on from their troubled past and forgetting their worries. The song also provides a back story for Pumbaa, explaining that he was ostracized from animal society for his excessive flatulence.

 Hakuna matata is a Swahili phrase that is frequently translated as "no worries". In bonus features of The Lion King Special Edition DVD, the film's production team claims that it picked up the term from a tour guide while on safari in Tanzania. It was then developed into an ideology that, along with the seemingly antithetical value of duty to the monarchy, is central to the moral content of the film.

To me this song and its lyrics are so important. Life is stressful and chaotic and so much happens that we never just stop and take time out to have fun. People always stress and are always worried about life and this song and the meaning of Hakuna Matata is to just forget everything and not to worry as much as we usually would. Sometimes in life there are situations where people need to think of Hakuna Matata

They're not your husband

This story by Raymond Carver is a story with a lesson that can be learned by all. Its a sad story about a man who tells his wife shes fat leading her to go on a diet which almost makes her sick. It all starts when someone tell the woman she has a fat bottom and the husband didnt like that others were calling his wife fat and wanted her to loose weight.

The language used is very offensive and shows that this man obviously had no respect for his wife. After the wife has been on aheavy diet and hardly eaten for a few months the wife becomes sickly skinny and the husband appears to be proud of what his accomplished and i feel that he has accomplished nothing because he has pretty much degraded his wife and made her feel insecure about her looks. After his so called "accomplishment" he replies with the remark of "What do you think of that?"

This is disgusting because woman are always degraded and for a husband to say this to his wife is awful. The story was very good and its great to see a story written with a strong message like this and it was enjoyabl as well.
