I Choose to Believe <br />Maybe I believe in a time that never was. <br />Maybe I believe in a time that never will be. <br />The only thing that really matters is that I choose to believe. <br /> <br />I choose to believe that someday things will be better. <br />I choose to believe that someday we will treat each other better. <br />I choose to believe that it is more important that we share our gifts <br />than how much we gain from our gifts. <br /> <br />I choose to believe that those at the bottom <br />deserve as much respect as those at the top. <br />I choose to believe in dreams and possibilities. <br />I choose to believe that life has a purpose. <br /> <br /> I believe that God must see our flaws <br />yet he continues to believe in us. <br />If God doesn't give up on us <br />then why should we? <br /> <br />I believe that tomorrow’s realities <br />can come from our beliefs today. <br />I believe the future is not certain. <br />The future is a choice. <br /> <br />Though logic and reason <br />may convince others to prove, <br />I believe I don't always have to prove. <br />I simply believe. <br /> <br />If scorn, ridicule and laughter <br />come from believing then so be it. <br />Someday that will end. <br />What will never end is faith, hope & love. <br />I choose to believe.<br /><br />Tom Krause<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-choose-to-believe-2/
