I believe in birdcalls and grasshopper serenades on dew-filled mornings. I believe that peace comes from contentment but that few people are content. I believe in John Lennon more than I believe in the Beatles and that the British royal family is overrated. I believe in tea more than I believe in coffee and in Macs more than in PCs. I believe in tofu, mismatched socks, and bamboo. I believe in a woman's right to choose and a child's right to live. I believe living 21 floors above the ground makes you miss the earth beneath your fingernails. I believe sex can be love, lust, or art. I believe the Dalai Lama is my brother and that George W. Bush is not my president. I believe that there can only be legal downloads. I believe we reincarnate, sometimes only as the smell after the rain. I believe in baby bottoms, short hair, and crow's feet. I believe nature is not my mother but myself. I believe musical instruments have souls and that the cello has the same color aura as I do. I believe in indie films, late night IHOP runs, and indoor plants. I believe in no kind of marriage but in all kinds of love. I believe happiness is life.

I like your values. I like the fact that you value happiness and nature, because it's the same way with me!
I like your views on happiness and contentment, I agree that few people are content but that is something we all strive to be. I also agree with your views on sex and would like to add that lust and love are too often intermixed and confused with one another.
I really liked your saying "I believe nature is not my mother but myself," for it is something I haven't really thought about. I believe we are all connected by nature, but that was a really cool way of putting it. Instead of nature being a part of us, it is us.
