I believe in the right for women to have a choice.
I believe in people, because it's a little known fact that they have a tendency to surprise.
I believe in Change with a capital C.
I believe in myself, a kind of satisfaction that no other god can give to me.
I believe in serendipity and it's ability to amaze.
I believe in the ethical treatment of animals - they're living, breathing creatures, no different than we are.
I believe in magic in it's oh so many forms.
I believe in breaking free of routine.
I believe in personal freedom for all - something that no job or school should ever revoke.
I believe in gay marriage, because love knows no bounds.
I believe in respect for everyone, no matter how conflicting their personal views may be with yours.
I believe in abolishing the word "feminist" - in the words of someone spectacular, "I was asked if I was a feminist, I said - 'isn't every woman?'"
I believe in the power of clothes - although true love for yourself starts on the inside, that perfect dress can always make you feel like a goddess.
I believe in beauty, however it comes wrapped.
I believe in consistently doing the impossible.
I believe in art, in all it's quiet splendor.
I believe.
The question is, what do you believe in?
Always,
Penelope ♥
