1. The entire first half of Moana, especially the part where the ocean "chooses" her when she's a little toddler and the song the villagers sing, "Where You Are" while Moana grows up.
2. In the shower, imagining my son getting bullied when he goes to school.
3. Waking up one morning with the overwhelming feeling of "not having anything ready for the baby."
4. The end of the video for the song "Glosoli" by Sigur Ros where these little Icelandic children jump off of a cliff and start to fly over the ocean.
5. The end of the movie Coco where the little boy sings "Remember Me" with his great-grandma.
6. Visiting my parents and my mom asking whether we wanted to watch Planet of the Apes or La La Land. (The actual reasons for the crying were more complex, but that is what set me off.)
7. The idea of someone at school telling my friend's little daughter that she's darker-skinned than her twin sister as if it were something to be ashamed of.
