This I Believe


This I Believe
            I believe in a world where people can reason and understand one another. I believe in a world without deceit or hypocrisy. I believe in humanity. We possess an inner goodness vested upon us at birth. It is within our nature to do what is right, although what may be right is neither the most enjoyable, nor appreciated. People live by their own convictions, and for those of us who stay true to their personal cause, let us continue to strive in that direction. Even if one is uncertain of the future, let him or her enjoy a life of adventure, in which the journey is the destination. By the end of our journey on this earth, we will come to accept our differences. Therefore, let us enjoy the fruits of which our forefathers have fought for, a life we too often forsake. Pursue a life of happiness, through whatever means it may be, as long as it is not at the expense of someone’s suffering. A life of affluence, intellect, pleasure, no matter what you choose, let it be your own. In order to achieve a peaceful world, it is essential to live according to your own will and to never oppress another’s. Understand the thoughts and opinions of others, and especially come to respect them. Only through this can everyone come to live a life full of diversity and new perspectives. I believe that humans can attain a world of harmony and individual will. I believe in humanity.
