A few years back, I had watched The Polar Express. It carried a beautiful message to believe. Such a simple word, yet a depth of meaning woven in those seven letters. I am glad I did, and still believe...*In God. I know He is there, watching.
*In faith, that hand which never gives way when all seems lost.
*Love comes again.
*I make a difference, even if a small one, in the life of another.
*Dreams do come true.
*Heartfelt repentance can undo a mistake.
*True friends do get back.
*One need not always be by our side to show they are there.
*There is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
*Justice is served right here on earth, well before Judgement Day.
*Nature is what makes a person beautiful.
*It is better to be ignorant than know it wrong.
*Everyone has the power to chisel their own destiny.
*First impressions are not always right.
*Pampering is the best gift we can give ourselves.
*Music can heal.
*Tears are not a sign of weakness but a silent prayer.
*Angels do exist within each of us.
*Life is beautiful in spite of all its flaws.
*If you love someone, you should love the whole package.
*It is better to be oneself and be liked less than to imitate another.
*Choice makes a person what they are.
*Respecting another is important to respect yourself.
*Babies in any form are the epitome of innocence.
*There is still hope.
*That it will be alri
ght.*Imperfections are what make us human.
*We all have a purpose in life.
*The day you stop believing is the day you cease to live.
*Time might change my beliefs, but not the fact that I believe.
So tell me, do you believe?

//Time might change my beliefs, but not the fact that I believe.//
hmm, hard to believe the fact :(
Guess you need to work on believing! :)
For me believing is like dreaming, Without it life must be very hard indeed. The nice thing is its free to all so take advantage of it!
All the best things in life are always free! :)
he he justice is served right here on earth !!!!
I beieve only in one thing .. Myself . that according to me is the only one and everyone of my beliefs.. no not a maniac here .. a simple fact tht i tend to define/bias/judge/appreciate/understand every single moment by my perception of it... thts what makes ur beliefs as wellur perceptions .. doesnt it ? so i believe only in me ..
i don't believe in God but i know the difference between right or wrong.
"love comes again"...well can't say.
i can make a diff--yes.
some dreams come true.
"heartfelt repentance can undo a mistake" ...well nothing can be undone in this world.
true friends never go away.
pot of gold at the end of rainbow....work hard and keep believing in yourself anything is possible.
"justice is ....day."
i don't believe it.
"we all have purpose"
there's no logic behind it.
"*The day you stop believing is the day you cease to live."
if u stop believing in urself you are gonna go down real bad.
time can change my facts and not my belief.
I agree with all other...and yes i believe but only in those things that have a logical explanations.
//any issues about me being an atheist hen plz read this once...and the comments too...
http://smellofearthafterrain.blogspot.com/2008/06/religionsthe-illusion-creators.html
Trapped !!
I live in a world
governed by reasoning & emotions,
I know not how they synergise,
I can see only corrosion.
For every decision to be made,
in my mind there is commotion,
Whether to trust reason or follow my heart ?
I have neither answers nor notions .
Both seem to be important,
Am often left desolate in ambivalence.
Just when the weight shifts towards one side,
Difference in perception brings back the balance.
I wish sometimes to be a program,
I could decide based on a fixed ordinance,
Decisions would be made quickly,
Dilemmas would have zero tolerance.
They tell me that i am free,
But irony has it that i live in a society.
They tell me how to live life the right way,
Then blame a mishap on destiny.
I wish i could break free and show the world,
That everything in it is a mere parody.
I wish that i could be born free as a simple child,
And then be the sole father of my destiny...
long yeah but i guess it conveys my philosophy
Well reasoned Siddharth!To each,his own :)
Woah you posted a poem here!It's a brilliant piece.Cheers!
These are some of my beliefs Vikram,and beliefs need not necessarily be based on fact.Doesn't matter who agrees or who does not,I believe in what I believe.Simple!
I have no issues about you or anyone being an atheist.As I said,to each his own :)
//So tell me, do you believe?//
i was just responding to that question yaar. :)
peace
Lol!I didn't take any offense.Just wanted to know what others believe in,not a review of my beliefs :)
*Peace*
Those are such beautiful words! Each of them precious and each of them truly marvelous! :)
How lovely. I believe you are a well-balanced soul. :D
I believe that God is guiding my way and always has tried to. I resisted when I was younger, but I am wiser now and much happier with Him leading the way.
Hugs, JJ
in to say it short...i believe that the light shines the brightest :)
It is better to be oneself and be liked less than to imitate another. I think this was my favorite, Sameera. Because it took me so long to understand it for myself.
It's so easy to try to perform to other's expectations. But it's never truly life-affirming. Much better to be strong in yourself and your beliefs, and inspire love from others through that strength.
Great list. I, too, have my religious doubts, but your faith genuinely seems to light you up. Which is a beautiful thing. :)
I believe.
Love the best healer for all pains/sorrows.
** Love comes again

***Imperfections are what make us human.
thats me...always imperfect...
***We all have a purpose in life.
i am still not able to find it out...

n hats off to d way u have put it...
**Love comes again
my fav :)
Absolutely... I beleive in all that you had mentioned... After all, human life is driven by it, isnt it?
having some internet connection problems... so will talk to ya soon hopefully... have a nice day... cheers...
I miss you!
Time might change my beliefs, but not the fact that I believe - beautiful.
yeah, the important part is believing. whn you stop to believe, you loose the beauty of life...
hmmm ... nice list ...
i too am a believer .... never sat down to jot down all my beliefs ... but I am sure if ever i do ... most of the ones that are here will come down in my list too ... :)
Wonderful message... really I have belief in all your words. I am agreeing with these beliefs...But especially I like this word "one need not always be by our side to show they are there." Sometimes I feel nobody in my side. This word gives me new meaning…nice post.
Sweety, this post was breath-taking and very very thought-provoking !
A wonderful mind has really gotten around and picked up the best of the lilies that made life a beauty to with-hold and a treasure to own.
I loved it when you said,
**Everyone has the power to chisel their own destiny.
Most times we think we are the victims of destiny - however truth that might hold, I think the only way we can make things right is only by believing that they can be right !
**If you love someone, you should love the whole package.
This is smth that can be understood who has truly ever loved somebody n has done what it takes to keep the candle burning.
**Time might change my beliefs, but not the fact that I believe.
This was the cream on the cake girl ! I loved this thought totally !!
All you need is to believe !
Wonderful wonderful post sweety.
muaah.
Have a nice day.
With thoughts coming out as this yesh i do believe in myself n u too and the beliefs held by u r so valid just tht v need to knw n make these beliefs come true n follow them..
loved each n every line of it believe me ;)
hugs n lodsa love
i totally believe tht justice is served here itself.. we have to pay for our deeds n tht too with interest within this lifetime...
ooh n dun laugh.. but i still believe in Santa n i get presents every christmas :))
wow mind-blowing post!
I really liked it. And yes I believe.
And yes, u do make a BIG difference in being in my life. HUGS!
**It is better to be ignorant than know it wrong.
I agree totally!
And I believe in Angels too.
And yes TRUE friends will come bak...I so believe in that cos it has happened to me and my mates, many times. If u really care abt someone, there's no way u can live w.o. getting bak to those ppl..
*HUGZ* n ty for this lovely post!
Keshi.
to tell you the truth.. earlier on... things had reached such a level where i believed everybody except myself.. but things have changed and I've started believing too,,, it brings in the much needed peace of mind...
ps: you've got a beautiful blog out there
ofcourse i believe. even when i don't want to i try to believe that it will get better. sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't but yeah i keep believing.
love does come again. :-)
The Polar Express was a beautiful move - and for me it spoke of self belief more than anything else. I think you can stop believing in a lot of things but when you stop believing in yourself, then you're really in a bad space.
Hugs.
i believe that there are always people who will convey the simpliest truths of life to lots of people in the most beautiful way. And you are one of them.
Great post, sweetie, one of your best for me :)
Love you :)
Thanks Anindita! :)
now tht brought a smile on my face...so many lines that i bel in but i keep forgettin :)
I hope, n after readin this, I bel a lot of things will be better soon :)
BEAutiful :)
What a lovely post.. :) yes! I do believe in all you said and I so believe that wtr we say or think but sooner or later life will be the way we want it to be.. we just have to keep believing ourselves.. right girl *smiles*
Thanks Nancy!I am still getting there though.
Such a beautiful thing isn't it,to be guided by Him? :)
Hugs!
Yes Vishesh,I believe that too :)
Sooner or later you understood it Sarah and that's what matters :)
I feel if one lives up to one's own expectations,nothing better than that.
Thanks dear,this faith is what keeps me going!
*I not only believe but I am sure God is there and I share that faith.
*I know that I make *a lot of* difference.
*With right efforts, dreams do come true.
*I don't think you can ever undo mistakes or as a matter of my belief, I disagree that any moment or feeling can be emitted.
*For love, I believe it cannot be summed in words or described.
*At times, people need to let you know that they are there.
*Sometimes you have to surrender before destiny.
*And I totally agree with the "Justice" and the "Tears" thing. God has His ways which we don't understand.
Just hope time and God changes my belief to best :-)
Btw..b'ful post...really1
Yes Hobo,it is :)
I hope you do find the purpose of your life Hemanth.What I wrote are my beliefs,and they were not conjured in a day.
"Belief does not always help" - that's your perception and I respect that.
Yes Mayz,it's such a powerful word,and opens our mind to many a vista.
Thanks! :)
Yes Arv,it is one of the major driving forces ever.
Awww Kaylee Baby!Muaaaaaaaaaah

Amable citar Rosa,gracias por compartir lo!
Gracias por el deseos :)
well belief is one thing but you have to be persevering too because I can believe many things but I have to be able to make it.
Of course you need to pursue them,or else there is no use in believing!
Liked this- "Imperfections are what make us human".
Believe in yourself the world shall follow you.
i tag u sameera...!
samy
u r tagged
Thanks Jeeves!
Well said :)
Vinay & Joie : Thanks for tagging but I have already done them!
***First impressions are not always right
But, when it comes to me it will never be right. My teachers used to hate me in the first few weeks but as time passes and when I am out of college they really know that first impression is never right when it's me.
***Love comes again
Ofcourse, but will you be able to love with all your heart as sincere as your first love?
**Heartfelt repentance can undo a mistake.
what's done is done, there is no undo.
**Justice is served right here on earth, well before Judgement Day.
Don't know, how many criminals are living superbly with all luxuries.
***If you love someone, you should love the whole package.
if we are able to know what really is inside the package then we won't regret
***We all have a purpose in life.
So do we think. But, most never know what's the purpose of their life.
Thanks for that review of my beliefs.I don't need to explain them cause they are from my point of view.If you don't agree with them,you are welcome to do so.But that does not mean you or anyone else has the right to mock them.
hey i updated .. lemme know what u think .. "his bride"
Sure!I guess I better blogroll you :)
I read this again and just wanted to say that you were spot on :)
wish people who think otherwise try to believe in themselves too.
Thanks buddy!
I wish the same too.The world would be a much better place if people believed in themselves.
Good heavens. This has made me cry.
(Not in a bad way...)
Awww dear :)
Hugs!
so simply stated yet so beautiful... not to mention profound! yes i believe too... in almost all of the things that you have mentioned...
very nice :)
plus.. i love ur template!
Thanks a lot!Nice to know you do :)
Glad you liked the template,it's my creation!
yeah i believe in most of the things stated out there...here i must agree to the fact that 'music can heal'. it can heal your mood ,your mind and everything you have got. everything is so much connected to our mind and mood that healing mind is like healing you!!!
Welcome here!
Yup you said it there.Music is a great doc :)
nothing great has been achieved except by those who believe that sumthing in them is superior to circumstance... and i continue to believe.....
ask ne... i ask her to "beleive all the time"
A great way to go Jawan!
I am sure she is the type to believe too :)
yayy yayy captain...
hope and belief are the arsenal for survival or else life will be a drag
Dreams do come true...yes they do..friends always come back!! and yes indeed..they aren't always be my side but they're still there for me! :) :)

Hi Sameera,
Yes, we all have our own systems of beliefs. And what we believe in is of utmost importance in our lives. Wrong beliefs like those being espoused by terrorists and religious fanatics who kill and maim, may lead us to our own destruction. It is best to maintain positive beliefs in life, those that will make our existence more purposeful. Thanks for the exquisite and meaningful post. God bless you and your loved ones always my dear friend.
mots u have learned too much from life :P
Good to read though :P
BELIEVE me sameera , this post is unbelievably beautiful :))
i second your thought that " nature makes a person beautiful"
as of the question you asked
do you believe? -
yes ofcourse more than anything i believe in myself:)
Thts a really beauty
Belief...the only thing tht makes my dreams cum true..yeah am still seeing and observing the power a belief contains..and this power is growing everyday

the day i stop believing in them will indeed be the day i cease to live...
Thanks.That's nice to know.And may all that you believe in be fulfilled.
You went through all my tags just to check if I had not done it?Wow!Will surely do it sometime :)
wow- I love this list and I went through each and every line of them. Do I need to only choose my favourites? Hmmm...I love them all actually, but if I have to list out a few then....I will go for ...
One need not always be by our side to show they are there
Nature is what makes a person beautiful
and
Tears are not a sign of weakness, but a silent prayer
Thanks dear.Nice to know you loved them all.That means you truly believe :)
oh u bet..she says beleive in urself...the moment u stop i'll beleive for u.... my gf's the best!
Awww!Yup,you are one lucky dude :)
Sameera! I would have to say yes I believe!!It took me awhile but I believe!!! This place is truly and Haven for all!!!
@ Samby I meant that also
p.s.
for some reason blogger would not let me comment.. so my mom is doing my comments for me! lol lol!!
There is one single point that outweighs all the other points:-
*There is still hope.
For the first time, I seriously do not have anything to dissect.Beautiful post indeed !
Ne darling,that's a great thing!Keep believing,no matter what.Thanks dear :)
How nice of her,hugs to your Mom!
Thanks Mishraji!I think it's the second time :P
imperfections are what makes humans...wow..perfect...ur blog has this magical feel to it yaar...good work...keep it coming!
Welcome here and thanks! :)
i loved every word...and yes I do believe...it is hard at times but sometimes believing is the only thing we can hold on to survive.
Take care my dear. Happy weekend!
I believe everything on that list.
Amen.
And I believe that LOVE transcends EVERYTHING... always.
I believe that we never truly cease to exist, we just become other things. No end, amen again.
I believe you are a mirror of my heart and soul, and I am so glad that there are many like us out there.
Great list!
Scarlett & Viaggiatore
Thanks Lisa sweetie!I know you do :)
You too have a lovely weekend.Hugs!
I know you do Scarlett.And I believe in that which you believe as well :)
It's so uncanny isn't it?I am really glad too.Thanks!
yes sam I truly believe and the point that touched me the most is tears is not weakness but a silent prayer and we all know prayer is strength. so I liked tears being associated with strength.
Glad to know you do dear.Yes they are :)
One thing that I never want to have even an iota of a doubt is belief in Allah !!! May god help me when i say this !!! Inshallah !!!
And the rest of things joh bhi hai....kabhi believe karte hain hum...Kabhi kuch bigadjaaye toh pal mein trust kho baitte hain....
It shouldnt happen with God !!!
Yes Bro,belief in God is what keeps us going at times.Inshallah,may all your aspirations be fulfilled!
"Life is beautiful in spite of all its flaws"
one amongst the many things i truly believe in :)
great post dear
Thanks sweetie! :)
