This I Believe

          This started out as a “This I Believe” essay. I then condensed it down to what is published below. When I was first asked what I believe, I could not come up with anything. But the more I thought, the more I realized that I actually did. I believe that everything will be fine in the end. I was also able to use this belief in my six word assignment also posted below. These are words I live by. I constantly say this to my friends and many of them don’t understand. This is simply me trying to explain what I believe.

            This I Believe

        Some people believe in tooth fairies and Santa Claus. Others believe in ponies and unicorns. Whatever you choose believe, I believe that everything will be fine in the end. Simply put, if it is not fine, it is not the end. However things are right now, at this very moment, are not how they have to stay. All the things we dislike in the world around us can, and will, one day change.

            When changes take place, they may not always immediately seem to be for the better, but it is these changes that make up the story of our lives. I have faced times of adversity in my life. Times when I felt my injury had destroyed everything I loved. Not only did I have to realize that most aspects of our lives are temporary, but also that everything would be fine in the end.

            Life always has a way of working out and making everything fine. The experience taught me a great deal about myself and my capabilities. It’s a simple concept, however hard to believe at times. Being fine does not mean it is perfect. Being fine does not mean it is wrong. Being fine means it is fine.
