faith of a child.

i have quiet ambitions to be a singer-songwriter. i don't tell many people this, as it has taken me so long to admit it to myself. but i do and i am trying to believe in myself.

rachel and i decided to take a walk around the block to soak in the beauty of the moment. i confided to her about my desire to be a singer-songwriter and my doubt as to whether or not i could do it. to this she replied, very matter-of-factly: "of course you can! you play all the time!"

yes!! a nine-year-old believes in me. somehow, that means more to me than any other adult believing in me. i don't really care what happens, because this nine-year-old had no doubt, nothing but faith in me. :)

oh, how i will always try to become as a little child. to have the faith of a child.
