"i believe in simplicity. i believe in feelings and family, friendship and fidelity, forgiveness and fortitude. i believe in motherhood and make believe. i believe in concocting and consuming colorful cocktails and fussing over and feasting on fabulous food. i believe in living out loud. i believe in laughing until your face hurts and loving until your heart breaks. i believe in behaving boldly when warranted, badly, taking bubble baths and being barefoot. i believe in poetry, puppies and playing in the park. i believed in scheduled working on weekdays and sleeping in on the weekends. i believe in dancing in the rain and digging in the dirt.. i believe in honest expression and the golden rule. i believe in nature and naps and that naivete is sometimes necessary. i believe in goodness and gratitude and grace. i believe in unity and the power of the universe. i believe in being authentically awesome. i believe in being better today than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow. i believe in challenges and change and growing pains. i believe in the inherent worth of every creature on this planet. i believe in honoring the individual journeys and paths of people whether i understand them or not. i believe in letting people live their truth and trusting that it's right for them. i believe in lifting up and letting go. i believe that death is just as sacred an experience as birth and that is is never, ever an end. mostly, i just believe that i'm never going to stop learning that is it i believe. ancora imparo."
