I recognize I don’t really know anything more than what others want me to know.

I have an intuitive sense of what is beneath the knowing.

I can feel the energy of mystery, deceit, cover up, uncertainty and questioning. 

The child in me wants to believe and so I allow myself to consider what is believable.

When we are passionate, we often sell our beliefs.

I love to be inspired.

I like to know what you believe.

I prefer to be happy.

I believe things will improve as we learn to make wise, conscious and helpful choices.  

Life experiences have shown me that I am trusting and even gullible.

Hope and optimism have given me a positive viewpoint. 

I shine a light on everything to see more from which to discern.

I prefer to look on the bright side to be enlightened.

The more I see, the more I know from which I can respond.

The more I forgive my judgments, the more I can trust and free.

The more we trust and free us all, the more we seem to be able to choose.

Let us all choose to listen, learn, love and let go.

Loving us as we learn to trust and choose freely what to believe.
