Belief

Belief is about your hopes and dreams,
It’s about your ideas and things.
Belief is about what you hold dear,
But stay with us, it don’t stop here.
Belief is about standing firm
To confirm
What you affirm
As a faith or value.
Belief is about standing beside
Full of pride
Choosing not to hide
Your ethics inside
So that you prove tried and True.
You know where you stand
You choose to endure
What the world has planned
And keep your Belief ensured.
These things give you meaning, satisfaction, direction.
They keep you from temptations and distractions.
Belief is why you find yourself responsible
When life is not much more than deplorable
Belief is why your priorities are consistent
Its why your relationships are so potent.
Despite what others say
When they play
In the fray
Of life
What they think
Is on the brink
While your belief
Keeps you in sync
Your work must be meaningful, it must matter to you
For with this theme of belief, you live your values.
