I BELIEVE, I TRULY DO...

My dear friend Angela sent me the following poem which moved me deeply. I hope it will touch and move your heart too. A Birth Certificate shows that we were born. A Death Certificate shows that we died. Pictures show that we lived! Relax . . . And read this.



I BELIEVE

-author unknown-

I Believe...
That just because two people argue,
it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean they do love each other.

I Believe...
That we don't have to change friends if
we understand that friends change.

I Believe...
That no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I Believe...
That true friendship continues to grow, even over
the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I Believe...
That you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.

I Believe...
That it's taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.

I Believe...
That you should always leave loved ones with
loving words.. It may be the last time you see them.

I Believe...
That you can keep going long after you think you can't.

I Believe...
That we are responsible for what
we do, no matter how we feel.

I Believe...
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I Believe...
That heroes are the people who do what has to be done
when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I Believe...
That money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I Believe...
That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I Believe...
That sometimes the people you expect to kick you
when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I Believe...
That sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I Believe....
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I Believe...
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others..
sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I Believe...
That no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I Believe...
That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,
but, we are responsible for who we become.

I Believe...
That you shouldn't be so eager to find
out a secret. It could change your life Forever.

I Believe...
Two people can look at the exact same
thing and see something totally different.

I Believe....
That your life can be changed in a matter of
hours by people who don't even know you.

I Believe...
That even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.

I Believe...
That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I Believe...
That the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.

I Believe...
That you should send this to all of the people that you believe in, I just did.

'The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the most of everything.


Here's Engelbert Humperdinck as his rendition of I BELIEVE. CLICK HERE to see him shine with this old favorite. Even as a six year-old girl in the late 1960's , I used to love his music. Older now, I believe his voice is even more powerful and awesome and exceptionally textured. So deep, sincere, pure in his innocuous style! The accompaniment also has a spiritual angelic touch that adds to the mood and ambiance of the song....

This one is the acapella version by THE LETTERMEN...very magical touch to it. Enjoy...

Here's wishing all readers of the Christian faith a Blessed Easter and a blessed day to all my readers. Take care and may you be blessed over and over as you bless others too! Next post will be up later @ 11-12noon. Thanks.

    ahoo The author may be Mac Anderson as he compiles many such sayings into booklet known as Simple Truths.

    If we do not believe, nothing would have been achieved at all. We must believe that we can change the current situation in our nation. The purpose of our lives in Malaysia is to give birth to peace and stability for our children sake. We cannot pass this baton to others and we are part of the relay team.

    The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.- Eleanor Roosevelt.

    Unknown Dear ahoo

    Many thanks for telling us about Mac Anderson. I tried to google for the author of this poem but most who posted this poem in the net also did not mention the writer.

    Faith, hope, beliefs - are so vital in propelling us forward to achieve our dreams that keep us alive.

    Indeed, one of those dreams would be a land of peace and stability for our children and their children.

    We have to pass on the baton confidently...and each of us MUST do our part, no matter how small it is.

    Take care and God bless!

    Cheers
