I Believe

Location

in banana splits for breakfast
with a milk shake straight from Haagen Daz
filled with Dulce de Leche icecream.

In change
And how many people often are affected by change
In both good and bad ways and often cope with it for the better.

in exercise and keeping my body in shape
so that I can stay healthy and physically fit for any situation.

in running,
But not for competition,
But rather for personal improvement and progress.

In the smell of sweat and sounds of deep breathing
After I know I got a good workout in

in keeping a good attitude,
not just for myself, but also for those around me

in maximizing your friends
so that I may be welcome everywhere I go.

That the easiest way to make any connection
Is through laughter

In following your heart before your mind,
Even if they both disagree

In Kevin Hart, Chris Tucker, Bernie Mac and Lewis Black comedy shows
To cheer me up when I’m down and give me a laugh whenever I need one

That everything happens for a reason,
The people I meet, the things I do, and the things that happen to me
Are all because of my past actions

in PG and PG 13 movies because
Those are the ones that touch my heart and soul best
And make me happy or amazed

in all the Fast and Furious movies to always excite me and make me
Anxious to drive dangerously

That money doesn’t necessarily correlate to happiness

That the world is filled with all the most perfect people to befriend or love
And it is my very difficult job to look for them, as they look for me

That true love exists but
Easy love doesn’t

In seeing as much as I can from the world
So that I may one day attempt to
Breathe it all in
