What I Believe — 18 of 31
Or “Condensing my Human Experience into a Post”
I’m a patron of Ninja Writers and this is day eighteen of the May Medium Post-a-Day Challenge of blogging for 30 consecutive days.
One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. Nine.Ten.Eleven.Twelve.Thirteen. Fourteen. Fifteen. Sixteen. Seventeen.
Let’s Get Down To It
I believe in cheering for sports teams because you have some sort of connection to them, no matter how much they suck (lousy Jets…).
I believe showers after a tough run or workout are one of life’s underrated treasures.
I believe in giving gifts unexpectedly and not expecting anything in return.
I believe in acting like an adult in serious matters and like a child in leisure.
I believe everyone has the chance to make their lives better, but that we should always be looking for opportunities to help others do so.
I believe in hard work, but I also understand not everyone has had the opportunities that I had.
I believe the most religious people are usually the hardest to identify because they do so through actions, not words.
I believe in taking credit only when I absolutely deserve it. Most things are accomplished as a team.
I believe the universe is far more complex than we can fully understand, but it’s still worth trying to.
I believe in thinking about the end of life as an inevitability so I can plan to make the best use of my time.
I believe that fear can paralyze but only we or outside forces can truly destroy ourselves.
I believe that a day without some sort of physical activity is a waste.
I believe in family and if you don’t get along with yours, make one you do get along with.
I believe everyone deserves a chance until proven otherwise.
I believe that we can always do better and we should never stop trying.
