My willingness to believe, when all logic says not to

Comes from within.

It is not dependent on facts or figures,

Or other peoples’ opinions.

It comes from a place deep inside me,

A knowing in my soul.

To believe is a conscious choice. Sometimes the wrong choice but

Life holds no guarantees, and therein lies the risk.

It is a risk requiring a leap of faith and not for the weak of heart,

But well worth taking as the rewards of a lifetime of faith and belief, in spite of the odds,

Is a lifetime of loving for love’s sake,

Without judgments, boundaries, or resentments.

So take the chance, make the leap

Believe with all your heart, love with all your soul

And leave the doubts behind.

Love is always worth the risk.
