I believe in wakening
up on Saturday mornings
With nothing to do
But to feel the cold
breeze
From an open window
While feeling the
warmth of your own body
Under the lavender
scented blanket
I believe in sunshine
The warmth and light
That warms your body
Enlightens your heart
And feeds your soul
I believe in the food
of music
I eat it up
An album is like a
banquet
Every note a different
flavor
To be devoured and
savored
I believe in human
connection
The desire to truly
know someone
To share who you are
with another
To be there for one
and other
Through bliss and
pain
Through sun and rain
I believe in
perfection that is not perfect
That life is truly wonderful
That suffering and
pain
Make way to luminous
days
That our darkest moments
Will make or break us
I believe in destiny
that is shaped by free will
That our path is
Like a colorless coloring book
It is up to us to
choose which crayons to paint the picture
I believe in
education
To try to understand
All that you can
understand
Knowing that you can truly
understand
Nothing
I believe in the
human condition
The unsure self becoming
aware
Of its self
And of others
And the relationship
it is with
Each other, the
world, and the universe
I believe in you
In being your self
The candle shining
its light
Illuminating the
darkness around it
Not afraid to be who
you are
Giving others the
taste of your individuality
So that they can find
their own individuality
We are like a
symphony
We must play our own
melody
That is in harmony
with the whole
