Affirmation

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I really agree with this. People regularly come out with clichés such as "you should live every day as if it's your last, because one day you'll be right" and "life is short" so often that I'd imagine the words have lost most of their meaning for a lot of people! But, whilst it's obviously ridiculous to expect to die every day, and thereby make no plans for the future, the best thing to do after an argument is make the peace. I always think I'd feel horrific if the last words I said to someone were angry ones, and so I really try to at least tell the person I was arguing with that I love/like/care about them a lot before I go to sleep, even if I'm not going to back down over the argument. Besides, I can never sleep if I'm angry/upset.

I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
Well, yes, often we do. But is that really so bad? If you never let someone hold your heart and learn to trust them to look after it, then you'd live a pretty sad existence. Sure, we need to learn to be happy when alone, but friends and family = happiness.

I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye
How true. There is no happiness without sadness, and vice versa. Good old yin/yang theory.

I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
It sure as hell looks it, but it turns out that it's just a trick of the light.


I believe a lot of things, but these are some that I like to ponder upon from time to time.

Oh, and it's a good song!
