Tornadoes in Kansas

When it comes to classic children’s films, one that undoubtedly comes to mind is *The Wizard of Oz*. As a child, I found immense joy in this timeless film, captivated by its vibrant colors and unforgettable songs. The adventure begins with one of my all-time favorite songs, ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow,’ which perfectly sets the stage as a tornado sweeps Dorothy away from her dull farm in Kansas to the enchanting and colorful Land of Oz.

Even as adults, we find deep connections to this story, as it serves as a powerful reminder of our quest for outside validation. We often strive to enhance the qualities we believe we lack, yet many times, we already possess those very qualities but fail to recognize them within ourselves — a theme that resonates across generations.
