• I believe the smell of rain is liberating.

  I believe that spider-webs are beautiful, and that their intricacy is breathtaking, though their artists inspire the other kind of breathlessness.. the gasping kind, generally accompanied with a jump in my shoulders.

  I believe that an “on” triple pirouette is one of the most beautiful feelings in my life.

  I believe that the day I get to dance full out without fear of injury, I will faint with joy.

  I believe that water tastes better than any other beverage on the planet.

  I believe that lighting candles is therapeutic.

  I believe that swimming underwater helps me breathe.

  I believe in keeping a bookcase (either in your home, or your mind).

  I believe that words look better with the British spelling.

  I believe in having songs in your head.

  I believe that I have been forgiven much.

  i believe that brilliance is possible.

  I believe in following your heart.

  I believe the Lord is the only one who will ever fully know mine.

  I believe my beauty is not diminished by another’s misunderstanding me.

  I believe that everything comes back to Love.

  I believe that when I do not write I become emotionally/mentally constipated.

  I believe that musicians are better mathematicians than I.

  I believe that St. Augustine was not being new-agey when he said “to know yourself is to know G*d.”

  I believe my life has been touched with the most beautiful people on the planet
  (and that today one of them, is 23).

  I believe that if you truly love someone, you desire with all of your heart for them to succeed; you want their heart to be fulfilled and to see them active in the things that make them thrive; you long to assist the realization of their every cherished daydream, even if it means sacrificing your own.

  I believe I don’t have to explain myself, or provide exhaustive explanations.

  I believe the secrets in my heart are valuable. And that yours are too.
