I've had this document saved on my computer for a long time entitled "I Believe." The original idea was taken from a fashion magazine who asked celebrities 5 things that they always believed in. I'm pretty sure when I first created it, my hope was that I would day become famous and be asked that question. It has now morphed into my list that I refer back to when I need some inspiration or I feel like I'm losing my mind.
1. I believe in the healing power of bunnies
2. I believe that your car has the best acoustics in the world
3. I believe in stories that when you retell them, you question if they actually did happen
4. I believe in the power of words
5. I believe in giving forgiveness where it is needed but also forgiving yourself if you just can't find it in your heart to do so
6. I believe in handwritten thank you notes, chocolate chip cookies from scratch and reading a book printed on real paper
7. I believe in being barefoot, drinking from the hose and writing with chalk
8. I believe that there is no magic pill for losing weight or looking younger. You have to take care of yourself the hard and time-consuming way. Quick fixes only end in disappointment
9. I believe in never letting a man carry your purse. He should have enough self-respect not to want to and if you can't carry your own purse then you shouldn't have one
10. I believe that a phone call to your mom can fix just about anything or at least make the world seem less bleak
