The Little Mermaid “Up where they walk‚ up where they run‚ up where they stay all day in the sun. Wandering free‚ wish I could be‚ part of that world.” Ariel sings this in the beginning of The Little Mermaid after an adventure with Flounder. She wishes to be a human with legs and live the way the humans do. The Little Mermaid is an example of a monomyth‚ also called a heroic adventure. Ariel may not seem like a so-called-typical-hero throughout the majority of the movie‚ but she has her own heroic

It means that if one of those friends slip and fall‚ they shouldn’t have to be paid to get rescued. No one can put a price on being alive. Being
