I believe in a lot of the things Brian mentioned above, and I agree that living my life that was does give me a permanent sense of contentment and gratitude. Also I do believe in the God described in the Bible, and that my life is meant to be lived through that point of view. That means working to defeat the selfishness that is natural in being human, and working to do hard things that help people who need it. I believe that people and relationships are more important than anything else. I believe that beer and chocolate are worth the calories...in moderation of course. I believe all women are beautiful. I believe in seeing the glass as half full. I believe positive humor and encouragement are smarter and more true than snark and sarcasm. I believe you can be nice and selfless without being a doormat. I believe you can be ambitious and content at the same time. Great post!

In love. In business. In friendship. It's what I do with that failure that drives me. For this reason, I believe in living in the moment. I believe that everything happens for a reason and that it will happen despite me, but hopefully with my guidance. I believe in good friends. Thanks for the post Mags. Keep 'em coming!

It adds to the song when you drive over a speed bump or hit a nasty pot hole, but otherwise remains silent. I believe in leaving a tambourine in the back of the car.

Eventually I realized that life is about experiences - regardless of what happens later, we're here for the sole purpose of living our lives. My belief structure is centered around that - It's to constantly push myself out of my comfort zone, to reach for something greater, try new things, meet new people, and love those around me. I've found that living my life in this manner has led to a permanent state of gratitude. I'm grateful for EVERY experience I have, the good and the bad. It's hard to do at times, and sometimes there's an unfavorable emotional reaction to deal with. But looking back, I am grateful for everything I've done, feeling I've felt, and person I've met. Especially you. Great post Mags, glad you're blogging again. I've struggled with this for years; I had a crisis of faith when I started studying religion at the University of Houston.

I believe in myself, which is easier said than done. I believe that all people serve a purpose in your life, even though it might be hard to see, and even if it's not forever. I believe that animals need to be spoken to in animal voices, but babies do not need to be spoken to in baby voices. I believe that cheese holds the key to eternal happiness. I believe that shoes and clothes are overrated. I believe in being true to yourself, even if it's unpopular. I believe that not all people are inherently good. And I believe you have to learn that one the hard way. I like this post :) I believe that it's okay to be someone you never thought you'd be. I believe in myself, which is easier said than done.
