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 and when warranted, badly, taking bubble baths and being barefoot. I believe in poetry, puppies and playing in the park. I believe in scheduled working on weekdays and sleeping in on Sundays. 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 naïveté 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 it is never, ever an end.

Mostly, I just believe that I’m never going to stop learning what it is I believe.

Canned Heat - “Let’s Work Together”

Together we’ll stand, divided we’ll fall
C’mon now people, let’s get on the ball
And work together
C’mon c’mon, let’s work together, now now people
Because together we will stand, ev’ry boy, ev’ry girl and a-man

People, when things go wrong as they sometimes will
And the road you travel it stays all uphill
Let’s work together
C’mon c’mon, let’s work together, ohh
You know together we will stand ev’ry boy, girl, woman and a-man

Oh well now, two or three minutes, two or three hours
What does it matter now in this life of ours?
Let’s work together
C’mon c’mon, let’s work together, now now people
Because together we will stand, ev’ry boy, ev’ry woman and a-man
Ahhh, c’mon now..

Ahhh, c’mon, let’s work together

Well now, make someone happy, make someone smile
Let’s all work together and make life worthwhile
Let’s work together
C’mon c’mon, let’s work together, now now people
Because together we will stand, ev’ry boy, girl, woman and a-man

Ahhhh yeah!

Well now together we will stand, ev’ry boy, girl, woman and a-man
Ahh yeah

How wonderful would it be if we all still used the buddy system to help one another cross life’s intersections? How incredible could we make the world if we promised to just walk beside each other & hold hands so we don’t ever get lost or separated? It really is just that easy. (Taken with Instagram)

Love Is Alive
I Will Stand By You: The Essential Collection

The Judd’s - “Love is Alive”

And love ain’t just a word
In every dictionary
With no where defined
Love is a man and he’s mine

Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week
Love is alive
And it grows every day and night
Even in our sleep
Love is alive
And it’s made a happy woman out of me
Oh, love is alive
And here by me

Love ain’t just a mood
A distant far away dream
That needs the night to rise
Love is alive
And love ain’t just a song
Sweet words of music
To go dancin’ by
Love is a man and he’s mine

Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Every day of the week
Love is alive
And it grows every day and night
Even in our sleep
Love is alive
And it’s made a happy woman out of me
Oh, love is alive
And here by me

Love is alive, here by me

“In our relationships, how much can we allow them to become new, and how much do we cling to what they used to be yesterday?”
