What can we truly believe in?

"A belief can either save us or destroy us."

     Human history shows that we have always felt the need to believe in something or someone.  We

have certainly have some rather strange beliefs which warrant some SMH moments.  Even to this day

some people have some wacky beliefs in which they remain steadfast.  Maybe doing so helps to 

escape harsh realities.  There are countless songs that express the need to believe in love itself or a 

lover, and to believe in ourselves and our dreams.

     However, in these chaotic times, what can we truly believe in?  What can we hold onto comes

what may?  I would love to hear what people would say in response to these questions.  I know

many would give a response based on their religious beliefs.  That's okay.  We may not all have

fervent religious beliefs but we understand that others do.  Some would immediately think about their

love for and belief in their family.  I think most, if not all, of us can attest to the joy of having a

family that is always there for us.  We can believe in their love.

     When it's all said and done, we would have to say resoundingly that love is what we really can

believe it.  Real love will always be there.  Our love for our family and friends stands the tests of

time.  Generations before us held on to it when all else seems hopeless and we too now hold dearly

on to it.  Love just might be the only thing that makes sense as all sorts of craziness swirls around

us.  Love will always win the day!

Starting Over

If only we could start over, the sky would always be blue and our love would always be true.      So many of us wish for a "do over." We wish we could step back into time and do some things differently. We don't like some of the results we have now so we want to go back and change our answers. We may find ourselves asking the question: What could I have done differently with the  same tools or opportunities that I had then? Now more than ever I understand why we sometimes think like this although it may be entirely fruitless to do so. After all we can't change the past, what is done is done. However, it may help us to find peace with our decisions if we turn them inside out, analyze them and determine why we made them. This could help us to make less choices that we will regret later on.      Getting older certainly can play some tricks on our mind. It has made me think more and more about when I was younger. This, of course,...

Perseverance

"There's darkness and light, sunshine and rain. Nothing remains the same."      Life is a battle in itself. Every day we fight for or against something or even someone. As soon as  we cross one river, there's another to cross. This is why we can often feel like throwing our hands up  and just give up or give in. The light at the end of the tunnel may be taking too long to appear.  That's when we feel like it's all too much and we just can't be bothered anymore. However, when that  wave of hopelessness crashes into us, that's when we have to become a skilled survivor, ride it out  and come out on top.      We have to remember that nothing remains the same, after the darkest night, the sun still appears. When we keep on fighting that's when we get rewarded for not giving up. But we have to believe that things can change for us. When we embed hope in our heart, the light appears.  I went throug...

Companionship

                     "We can touch each other in so many ways,                  throughout the nights and the days.                  You don't have to be near,                  as our love travels through the air" I have heard more than one real life case where someone passes and they are only discovered some days  later on. This is due to the fact that they lived alone and also largely went unnoticed. So many thoughts cross my mind whenever I hear of this. You wonder who were their loved ones. Were those who cared  about them far away? The most unsettling thought is that they may not have had anyone who truly cared for  them. I recall reading an article where it detailed that the man lived alone, ate alone, slept alone, and died  alone. This was all to solidify the point that lon...
