"If others think I am nuts, naive, gullible, and not living in the real world, that's all right too...I'll gladly stay in what some have called my fictitious world, my happy and peaceful world, a world full of signs of hope." - Ward Foley
I believe that people are good. I believe that we can all do what it takes to change our world. Change someone's life. Change our own outcome.
I believe in love. I believe in good. I believe in happiness. I believe in people.
I support the underdog. I give people the benefit of the doubt. I believe people are telling me the truth.
I believe that some people are handed a shitty hand. I believe that circumstance can make people act in certain ways. I believe that we, as a society, ostracize people who do not fit into our norm.
I believe that life is not fair to many. I believe that we take so much for granted. I believe that many cannot recover from the hardships they've been dealt.
I am hopeful that all of this might work out in the end. I am hopeful that good will prevail. I am hopeful that simple act or thought can change a life.
I hope that people learn to love. Unconditionally. With all their heart. Fiercely.
Call me nuts, naive, gullible. Call me hopeful and I will know I am doing right.
