I Believe...

I believe that every single thing a person does in life is a choice, excuses should not be made for a person’s decisions.

I believe in not apologizing for something unless you intend to not do it again. Actions speak louder than words.

I believe in God and that He has given me great joys in life and has held me and comforted me in times of darkness.

I believe that playing with your kids is more important than anything else you could possibly have to do on any given day. Parenting should be the job that you put the most the most effort into.

I believe that integrity is the most important value a person should have. Without integrity and honesty a person has nothing.

I believe that abortion is wrong and that only God should decide who lives and who does not.

I know that I am a ninja, a real one.

The world would come crashing down without polka dots and glitter.

I believe that my dishes are not clean unless I wash them 3 times before running them through the dishwasher twice. I am not sure if this is a belief or my OCD but either way my family says it is outrageous.

I cannot believe the way people act and the epic moral downfall that has occurred in society.

I do not believe that dinosaurs ever existed.

I do not judge people. It is not my place and for me to judge them it is just as bad and harmful as what they are doing wrong. Time is too precious to waste on hate, jealousy, and envy, which is where most judgment comes from.

I always go the extra mile and give whatever I am doing my best, even if I don’t want to be doing it. I do everything with joy in my heart. If I do something, I do it right. Why waste time doing something if I don’t do it well. Doing your best should be a trademark.

I try to make a difference in at least one person’s life every day. It can be a compliment to a stranger or a random act of kindness for someone I know, just a smile or even a gift. One of the biggest rewards in life comes from giving yourself to others. Life isn’t meant to be selfish.

Every day is an opportunity to better myself. I am constantly trying new things and to improve my attitudes, my health, and my reactions to things. Even things that don’t need to be changed can be improved and I do it now because today will never happen again.

As a writer I want to learn from my mistakes. Failing at something doesn’t make you a failure.

When writing I want to not overlook the beauty of small moments. Taking the time to see things and write about them no matter how small they are can be huge.

I would never be unforgiving. I don’t hold grudges and I believe forgiveness is more for me than for the person who hurt me.

I would never go bungee jumping or do anything more than 3 feet off of the ground, and that is for sure.

There are very few things I would not do.

  1. I just found your blog being that I too am a 'Domestic Diva' (and use the term as my official job description)and was googling the phrase.
    So I started to read your top post and came down to the list of your beliefs. When I got to #11 I was startled. I can understand, as a Christian myself who believes in a young 6,000-ish year old Earth, that the dinosaurs are a controversial topic. Just in the past 2 months I came across a YouTube documentary called 'Forbidden History Dinosaurs and the Bible', and let me tell you, I believe what he presents. Its from a Christian Perspective and he brings in a lot of historical proof. I've always believed they existed just not in the timeframe presented by the secular community. To me it makes perfect sense. At the very least its an extremely interesting theory. I urge you to grab a cup of coffee and watch it (about an hour and 10 mins long) and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
