TMI Thursday: Do You Believe?

Sean at Just a Jeep Guy started it, now all the cool kids are doing it (The ones I know about are listed in the sidebar).

DO YOU BELIEVE?

… in Coincidence?
* Sure, they happen all the time

… in Magic?
* Looking outside at the brown, deadness and seeing the first sprouts of spring daffodils… it’s a kind of magic.  

… in Love at First Sight?
* I believe in LUST at first sight. LOVE comes with mutual respect and commitment.

… in Soul Mates?
* Soul mates are what happens after LUST, but before LOVE

… in Miracles?
* Yes, miracles occur everyday. By which I mean events that aren’t expected in the general course of life but those who are affected by them find some comfort in ascribing their being caused by a deity or cosmic force.

… absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?
* No, life goes on even when those you love most aren’t in your life. I believe the sentiment they are attempting to communicate is longing. Absence amplifies longing, which people mistake for fondness.

… in Life After Death?
* No

BONUS

… in God?
* No, fundamentalist christianists made sure of that.
