The Audacity to Believe
I started thinking about this on my drive into work this morning. This idea of the audacity to believe rolling around in my mind. The audacity to see the light when engulfed in darkness. The audacity to believe in love when surrounded by hate. The audacity to believe that everything is going to be ok, even when surrounded by unknowns.
