Affirmation ...

Do you remember the song from Savage Garden? Really fast beat, probably made faster by the club-machines for people to dance. It's title was "Affirmation" and each lyric started with "I believe." I've always enjoyed it, and agreed with most of their affirmations.

So two weeks ago, in pondering what I should blog about, and listening to the cd in the car, I decide to give some of my own affirmations. Sadly, there aren't as many as I would have liked, but I suppose I could always do a Part II.

With no further ado, here are my Affirmations: (the ones with * behind them are in the Savage Garden song, as well)

I BELIEVE ...

in Karma what you give is what you get returned.*

the grass is never really greener on the other side.*

that God doesn't endorse anyone who hates in his name.

that God also doesn't care who marries whom ... gay, straight or otherwise.

GW ran for office to follow through where his father failed.

movie stars should keep their personal lives and opinions to themselves. Knowing their skeletons and opinions ruins their storytelling ability.

we each need to make special efforts to do our part so we don't destroy the Earth.

a soul mate deosn't have to be a romantic match.

tanning beds are just as dangerous as the sun.

putting someone down is not okay--neither is not sticking up for a friend when you hear others putting them down.

a true friend is always there when you need them, which is the greatest gift they can give.

we by nature judge people--it's that realizing it's only our opinion--is what truly matters.

the line between heroism and terroism is blurred and in the eye of the beholder.

no one has the right to take your happiness.

in things that go bump in the night.

hey stacey, sorry, i've been away lately. i'm just trying to catch up on all the blogs i've missed. i hope you enjoyed your trip to NYC. I like how you put a lot of thought and feeling into your blogs. i think it's hard to do in front of an audience. (my blog is different, i think you are pretty much the only person who reads it). thanks for posting so often. even though i don't get to talk to you much, i can read about what's going on in your life.
