I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night, a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray
Someone will come to show the way
I believe, I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer can still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear new born baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why
I believe
- Graham/Drake/Jimmy/Stillman, Composers
""I Believe" was commissioned and introduced by Jane Froman on her television show, and became the first hit song ever introduced on TV. Froman, troubled by the uprising of the Korean War in 1952 so soon after World War II, asked Drake, Graham, Shirl and Stillman to compose a song that would offer hope and faith to the populace. In addition to Froman, "I Believe" has been recorded by many others, and has become both a popular and religious standard." - wikipedia.org

the skies were incredible this morning. and then it got worse. no sunset shots as it was just all gray and windy and cold and miserable. so stayed home and ate lots! and the way i've been eating lately, i may no longer do any self portraits as i can't operate two cameras at the same time! :-P
I believe this is a fav. :)
