True believers

It helps. To continue to believe in fairy tales. The ones my mother read to me. And to believe in one key and crucial element of what was taught to me. In Sunday School, of all places. About living happily ever after. As for me, I’m not religious.  But that doesn’t stop me from believing in the spiritual afterlife. Simply, because I want to. In my pursuit of happiness. Yes. Yes. I am a true believer in the future. Even if it sounds like a fairy tale. Odd, isn’t it? That some unhappy professed true believers. That I know quite well. Seem to have forgotten what it means to be true believers. --Jim Broede
