What I believe

Lately, I've really been reconsidering what I believe. I know I believe in God and the Church, but somehow I feel like I've lost my way at times. I'm reading a book right now called Being Catholic Now, and it's made me stop and really think about my own beliefs.

I believe in God.
I believe 5 flats on piano is easier than 3 sharps. I can't explain why, but it is.
I believe in kharma, and what goes around comes around.
I believe no small act of kindness goes un-noticed, even if no one says anything about it.
I believe a 2 hour lunch with one good friend is better than any party.
I believe in the sacrifice Jesus made for us.
I believe flying through the clouds is what heaven must be like.
I believe a simple kind word can mean the world to someone.
I believe everything is an opportunity.
I believe we have a responsibility to better our world.
I believe in the power of music.
I believe God does not mistakes.
I believe shit happens. I'm sorry, but it does and we are just going to have to deal with it.
I believe a hug and smile from a small child means more than any wrapped gift ever could.
I believe in Jesus Christ.
I believe that no one is perfect-- even Christ on the cross doubted God's plans for him.
I believe my family is a little crazy and that is more than fine with me.
I believe in times of struggle, God gives everyone the gift of family and friends.
I believe animals are the perfect example of unconditional love.

This is what I believe
