Do you believe?
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.

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.

friend cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.
I believe - That the people you care about most in life are taken from
you too soon.

don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.
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 - IN GOD, so I can trust the Word of God too.Do you believe?I totally concur.
Please permit me to add another one
I believe - When you carry Jesus, He will carry you.Do you believe?No I don't believe all the the things that are written but I do believe and agree with some of them. Have a blessed day.Do you believe?Yes, I do believe that. Did you write this yourself? I just have to know. If so, I am so impressed.
PS : I believe that you should tell us if you wrote this yourself. The curiosity is killing us.
PSS : Thanks for letting us know. I enjoyed the link to your blogg. Didn't have time to read it all but will be looking back at it. You seem like a really fun person! I sent this out in an email and have gotten a response from my cousin, who loved it as well,said she printed it to give to her granddaughter. God bless!!Very well done. I will save thisI BELIEVE
Amen!!!
Ty for these words brother
Each one spoke volumes.
May we take these precious thoughts and hide a few in our hearts so that when the time comes where we face any of these situations, we would remember and %26quot;Believe%26quot;
I believe IN GOD... I trust the Word of God!
Ty for this post.
Really made my evening:)

There are enough people out there who have problems with %26quot;I believe in God,%26quot; why confuse and complicate things more?
I believe I'm going to bed soon... c'mon my little kitties... let's go snuggle up and fall asleep to the howl of the distant coyotes.

There is no best believe or wrong believe.I believe that I've read this email many times over the years. I also believe it's always worth another look. For the most part, I would agree with what it says.alot of writing to much to read all. next time cut it down by 90%.To much to read!It looks like most of your beliefs are based on generalizations and %26quot;common sense%26quot; and are not in any way %26quot;spiritual%26quot;. If these thoughts help you get through life, then they may be good, but to make them %26quot;beliefs%26quot; seems rather pointless and makes them %26quot;unquestionable%26quot; rather than allowing them to be refined as you experience and learn more.I like these best:
I believe in the soul, the [word for male chicken, but not rooster], the [diminutive for cat], the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.
--Crash Davis
I believe in the Church of Baseball. I've tried all the major religions, and most of the minor ones. I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms, and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I heard that, I gave Jesus a chance. But it just didn't work out between us. The Lord laid too much guilt on me. I prefer metaphysics to theology. You see, there's no guilt in baseball, and it's never boring... which makes it like sex.
--Annie SavoyI believe the Word of God and the promise He has made.Wow. I feel like I'm reading something I wrote and just don't remember it. I'm so thankful I read this, almost everything you put up there are things I've been trying to put into words.
But it almost surprises me when someone doesn't think these things. These seem just like facts listed. You should email me, let's exchange thoughts :)

What do you think of my letter to my daughter?
I write each of my kids a letter each year on their birthday. We keep them in a binder, one for each child. My daughter is turning 16 tomorrow, and this is what I have written her. Thoughts, comments, improvements? Thanks.
To my beautiful daughter on her sixteenth birthday,
So, this year I%26#039;ve decided to go a different route for your birthday letter; you are holding in your hands every nugget of wisdom I%26#039;ve gleaned in my forty-five years. Now, don%26#039;t get smart; I realize there are only five things. That%26#039;s because this is the abridged version. These are the top five things I%26#039;d like you to know before you turn sixteen.
1. It%26#039;s your responsibility to have a good day. I know you%26#039;ve heard the whole %26quot;pick your attitude%26quot; thing before, but it%26#039;s just so, so true and so vital to leading a happy life, which is what I want for you. Everyday when you wake up, you have a choice to make: you can either choose to be the Tigger, or you can choose to be the Eeyore. I want you to understand that happiness isn%26#039;t a feeling, it%26#039;s not a state of mind, luck isn%26#039;t involved; it is a choice. Bad things happen sometimes, but we can%26#039;t control that. The only thing we can control is how we react to those bad things. You can choose to smile, even if it%26#039;s raining.
2. When you get the choice to sit it out or dance, dance. Take advantage of every opportunity life throws your way, because you never know which will be the one to change your life. Experience everything you possibly can. Get your tongue stuck on a flagpole. Ride a rollercoaster. Take a chance, and ask him out. Volunteer your time. Walk in the rain without an umbrella. Sing at the top of your lungs. Supposedly your life flashes before your eyes right before you die. Make yours worth watching. Live your life with arms wide open.
3. Believe in something. I can%26#039;t make you believe in God; all I can do is tell you how much believing in Him has enriched my life. It%26#039;s such an incredible feeling to know that you%26#039;re not going through life alone, and to give yourself and your life up to something bigger than you are. And I desperately want you to know that, but at the same time I know that you%26#039;ll have your own journey of faith, one that%26#039;s really just starting. Just know that you don%26#039;t have to define your beliefs, not if you don%26#039;t want to. It doesn%26#039;t have to fit into anybody else%26#039;s ideas about religion, just yours. Find something that you believe in, something that works for you, and hold onto it. Don%26#039;t let anyone take it away from you.
4. Normal is just a setting on the washing machine. You have a set of personality traits, likes and dislikes, features and feelings that are unique to only you. You%26#039;re not a cardboard cut-out, you are an explosion of life; a streak of white across a canvas of black. Embrace it. Don%26#039;t buy into society%26#039;s bullshit: you do not have to hang out with a certain group of people, or listen to a certain kind of music, or shop at a certain store in order to be accepted. Stand your ground, when everybody%26#039;s giving in. You are an amazing person, and all you%26#039;ll ever need to do to be %26quot;cool%26quot;, is be exactly who you are. And if that ever isn%26#039;t enough for someone, then I hope you realize that they%26#039;re not your friend. You%26#039;re beautiful the way you are.
5. Do what you love, and **** the rest. Everybody is good at something. Find what you%26#039;re good at, what you love to do, and do it. For the rest of your life, do it. Don%26#039;t let other things clutter your path. Sometimes they%26#039;re necessary, don%26#039;t get me wrong, but always have that one thing you can come back to at the end of the day, because if you try hard enough, you can make the things you love count for more than everything else. And that%26#039;s the way to live your life.
Now, I did a lot of deliberating over which points to include in this letter, but I%26#039;m satisfied with the above. There are lots of other things I want to tell you, things that mostly I think you already know, like be a good person and eat your vegetables, but these are the five I wanted to focus on for the time being. These are the five things I wish someone had told me when I was your age.
As far as whether or not they all make sense at the moment, well, I%26#039;m not going to insult your intelligence by insinuating that you won%26#039;t understand them, cause, let%26#039;s face it, you%26#039;re a bright kid. So we%26#039;ll just say that it%26#039;s okay if you want to scoff and roll your eyes when you read this for the first time, but I do hope that the next time you have just an awful day at school or at work or with your boyfriend or whatever, you%26#039;ll come find this letter. I hope it can help, even just a little.
I love you everyday,
MomWhat do you think of my letter to my daughter?Katie-Mom - AWESOME!! She may not %26#039;get%26#039; all of these at 16, but she%26#039;ll be able to read it again maybe at 18 and glean more from it.
Well written, and very heartfelt.What do you think of my letter to my daughter?Beautiful just the way it is. I think I may steal this idea for my own kids. ;)What do you think of my letter to my daughter?Wow!!! I wish I was as eloquent as you! I tried writing my daughter a letter when she was born. It was very short because I am not a great writer. Your letter is wonderful and I%26#039;m sure your daughter will keep it forever!awwww
your daughter will aprechiate that you did this for her for the rest of her life and that is so sweet and such a great idea!I%26#039;m getting teary-eyed, because you seem to be a very involved parent!I love it! I%26#039;m not her, and everyone thinks for themselves, and I%26#039;m not sixteen, but it%26#039;s awesome. I would look through it in the eyes of a sixteen year old, or even better, find someone who has just turned sixteen and is a girl and ask her what she thinks.Aww your a sweet and wonderful mom. God bless you =]Im glad I got mine the car..she wouldnt appreciate this at all

Don%26#039;t let other things clutter your path. Sometimes they%26#039;re necessary, don%26#039;t get me wrong, but always have that one thing you can come back to at the end of the day, because if you try hard enough, you can make the things you love count for more than everything else. And that%26#039;s the way to live your life.
Now, I did a lot of deliberating over which points to include in this letter, but I%26#039;m satisfied with the above. There are lots of other things I want to tell you, things that mostly I think you already know, like be a good person and eat your vegetables, but these are the five I wanted to focus on for the time being. These are the five things I wish someone had told me when I was your age.
As far as whether or not they all make sense at the moment, well, I%26#039;m not going to insult your intelligence by insinuating that you won%26#039;t understand them, cause, let%26#039;s face it, you%26#039;re a bright kid. So we%26#039;ll just say that it%26#039;s okay if you want to scoff and roll your eyes when you read this for the first time, but I do hope that the next time you have just an awful day at school or at work or with your boyfriend or whatever, you%26#039;ll come find this letter. I hope it can help, even just a little.
I love you everyday,
MomWhat do you think of my letter to my daughter?Katie-Mom - AWESOME!! She may not %26#039;get%26#039; all of these at 16, but she%26#039;ll be able to read it again maybe at 18 and glean more from it.
Well written, and very heartfelt.What do you think of my letter to my daughter?Beautiful just the way it is. I think I may steal this idea for my own kids. ;)What do you think of my letter to my daughter?Wow!!! I wish I was as eloquent as you! I tried writing my daughter a letter when she was born. It was very short because I am not a great writer. Your letter is wonderful and I%26#039;m sure your daughter will keep it forever!awwww
your daughter will aprechiate that you did this for her for the rest of her life and that is so sweet and such a great idea!I%26#039;m getting teary-eyed, because you seem to be a very involved parent!I love it! I%26#039;m not her, and everyone thinks for themselves, and I%26#039;m not sixteen, but it%26#039;s awesome. I would look through it in the eyes of a sixteen year old, or even better, find someone who has just turned sixteen and is a girl and ask her what she thinks.Aww your a sweet and wonderful mom. God bless you =]Im glad I got mine the car..she wouldnt appreciate this at all
Do you believe all these believes are true and does it make you feel a wee bit humble?
Birth Certificate shows that we were born,
A Death Certificate shows that we died,
Pictures show that we lived!
Have a seat . . . Relax . . . And read this slowly.
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 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.

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 seconds
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.

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.

Peace to you and yoursi enjoyed reading that suzie, thanksyes i believe ,suzie ,thanks for reminding me.Yes, I believe all those things.
And it makes me look back at how I've lived.
And how I'm going to lead my life anew.
Thanks a million.as usual you lost me at do you.... -- let me know when the readers digest version comes out!!!Nice one. Yes, I do. 10/2 A few years ago, I went to with a team of Dr's and staff to Africa, our mission was to help starving children, they can die,,at the rate,,,,,,,,,,,25 a day. I met this little boy, Nine years old.................but made the mistake of getting to close........We became good friends.he had no one....no family.....No one! He was a son I never had. From village to village he went with me.always happy always smiling.......When you have no one, at that tender age its easy to become attached to someone who, loves and cares about you..........He died in my arms 2 years later.............I cried for a month, and still do,,,,,,,,,,I have dedicated my life, in this lab, 24-7 trying to find a cures, for all of mankind, and God's little children. I believe there will always be a better way, one step at a time.
PeaceThank you Suzie for reminding me of things I should remember, some times life gets in the way because of all we have to do and think about each day. It is nice to have someone to gently remind us of other important things as well. PoppyYes, these things are true. What I believe is that Christ living in me has made me able to live through some of these things. He gives the strength to go on. It is taking a long time for me to become the person He wants me to be... I am still a work in progress... Always tell the ones you love that you do.. never leave unsaid words of encouragement. Having lost father, mother, brother, and son... Tell them you love them ... I always have and do so I have no regret as I have seen that others do ...you never know what tomorrow holds. But I do know who holds tomorrow.Wow that was fab and I still have it all in my head thanks your are starr?Love it! NaniWay to much to read - very good i'm sending it on. thanks.WOW Suzie - yes all of these beliefs are true and very powerful - - - use with care! Thanks for sharing! Hugs CJ
Does the moon sign description describe you part 3?
MOON IN CAPRICORN
You were born to be in authority, it comes naturally to you. This could bring you either fame or notoriety! Either way, a certain amount of celebrity is guaranteed. If you focus on your ambition, dedication, and strong work ethic, the public eye will eventually come to view you as a prominent and respected individual. The Moon in Capricorn may make you a little insensitive and unperceptive of others feelings. Others might view you as cold and calculating. If your Sun or Ascendant is in one of the cardinal signs: Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn, your future success is almost assured. And with fame and success comes enemies. It is almost certain that one will appear and try to spoil your success or reputation, be it secretly or openly. But don't worry, this person will most likely fail! You share characteristics as a person whose Moon is in Scorpio. Both of you have a great amount of energy, trouble with the opposite sex (sorry!), and a lack of control in certain areas of your life. You have a strong influence over others. You also know how to put on a good show, and will do anything to accomplish goals you have set for your self. You are a mover and a shaker!
MOON IN AQUARIUS
You are very perceptive, imaginative, and enjoy the opinions your friends and colleagues offer. You are social, and sympathetic to others feelings. Your attitude is not the norm. You are prone to unorthodox, independent and unconventional tendencies. Your eccentric interests and hobbies will draw strange looks from observers. You are attracted to anything that is of an intellectual, social, original or unusual nature. Your vocation may include educational, political, scientific or social work. In your heart you are a true humanitarian. You have strong (sometimes-impractical) ideals. You are drawn to large movements supporting great causes. You may also belong to a (get ready for this) mystical or secret society, brotherhood, or association. Your intellect and imagination combine to give you inventive and original ideas. The Moon in Aquarius gives you an attraction towards occult subjects (astrology or clairvoyance). You are a real humanitarian, a true liberal. You get along with people who think the same as you. You may belong to a club or group of people who think the same way as you.
MOON IN PISCES
Your emotions drive you. Whatever appeals to them attracts you (be it music, literature or poetry). You change your mind easily, and to some, this makes you unreliable. When the going gets tough, you (much too easily) get discouraged. You love change, routines seem to draw the life out of you. You are easygoing, but very shy. The Moon in Pisces has often been considered an unfavorable Sign. It is often attributed with causing glandular problems and obesity. On the outside you appear happy, but inside you are prone to being depressed. You may even lack a common sense of humor. This may lead to periods of indiscretion, lack of focus, and even dishonesty. At some time in your life hospitals, prisons or some other type of institution will play an important role. However this must be put into context with the rest of your horoscope (the Sun %26amp; Ascendant) before any definite conclusions can be drawn. Don't be discouraged, the Moon in Pisces can be one of the most appealing, sociable, entertaining and humorous of all the positions! You have a flair for music; composing, writing or just listening and appreciating. Whatever you do is emotional and romantic. You have very creative ideas, and a strong imagination to fuel them.
you can find the rest on my page were the questions areDoes the moon sign description describe you part 3?I have moon in capricorn, and I can describe myself as a really serious(sometimes too much) hard worker. I will work very hard to get the things I need. I can be driven. When I am very serious it can be hard for my to loosen up. People have always told me I need to slow down and relax but this is all I know. I am a take charge kind of person. But my sun being pisces makes me not so hardened.Does the moon sign description describe you part 3?Humm my moons in Capricorn and that is abit to take on.
There's some truth to it I have unfortunately attracted enemies at the height of my life but Ive realised in this world that's just how it is on a positive note alls well that ends well.

Think about two aspects of your life that you have strong attitudes towards, one negative and one positive.?
When do you believe these attitudes were formed? Why? How can you work to change negative attitudes in your life?Think about two aspects of your life that you have strong attitudes towards, one negative and one positive.?I have a strong attitude against alcohol, it formed when I learned about what the alcohol industry does to get people to drink- something that is so damaging in our society. They target youth and alcoholics and especially children of alcoholics. Now if that is not sick %26amp; twisted I just dont know what is. They use the advances of our society to get customers and they go after the most vulnerable people. It makes me ill that they get away with it.
an example, %26quot;youthful drinking is associated with an increased likelihood of developing alcohol abuse or dependence later in life.%26quot; The industry knows if they hook them young they will likely have long term customers. Of course that doesn't always work out because they die of auto wrecks, suicide, homicide and other problems that alcohol is a major part of. I think if there is a death related to alcohol the industry should have to pay for it. I don't really want to change this attitude, I work hard not to harp on drinkers though because I am a recovering alcoholic so Ive been there it doesn't work to nag.
My positive belief is that I can do just about anything I want if I am willing to put time %26amp; energy into it. I have believed that since I was about 14 %26amp; won a medal showing my horse. Everyone I knew thought I couldn't do it %26amp; I worked up to four hours a day with my horse to prove them wrong (deviance is the number one characteristic of an alcoholic* lol). I still believe that if I truely want to learn something I can if I put in the effort.Think about two aspects of your life that you have strong attitudes towards, one negative and one positive.?you can only change a negitive attitude when you have recognized that it is indeed a negitive attitude. That is the first step. Once you have that understanding you have to think about what a more positive attitude or behavior would be and slowly begin to impliment it. You cant change something over night but you can change it. BUT%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; you can only change it if you truly want to and are willing to work at it.Think about two aspects of your life that you have strong attitudes towards, one negative and one positive.?Roniannrave: Young people are the ones who party and drink; Who else would you expect the Industry to target ? They are the logical demographic... No one forces them to drink. You might as well have the overweight blame the fast food industry for their problems...
You cannot legally drink until you are 21+ (for the US) and if you are not intelligent enough to make good decisions in your life, then that is your weakness. If you choose to eat the metaphorical apple, It's not the snakes fault...
If you hadn't guessed, one of my problems is with people who pass the buck and blame everything else plus the kitchen sink before they would ever look inward and accept responsibility for their own problems...
There are studies that show it is in fact good for you to drink one beer a day or one glass of wine (particularly red). Note: Studies not done by the Alcohol Industry.
