Believe


As a child I remember believing in magic. I remember that my parents used to leave hints and clues to foster that belief. It seems so silly now, but the truth is that teaching me the hope in believing has been one of the most powerful lessons that they ever taught me. As an adult it was those same signs, although not planted but seemingly meaningless, a stranger holding the door, a gentle snow fall, children asking Santa to give their gifts to someone who truly needs them, a relatively unknown neighbor being invited to share a meal with your family so they are not alone, a hug from an old friend, that give me joy and hope for the future. Believe.
