Age of Not Believing



I've never let anyone talk me into not believing in myself. Muhammad Ali Quotes
Quotes
Rush in hopeless circles
Searching for truth,

At the age of not believing 
Make-believe is gone.

Set aside heroes,
Put imagination on a shelf.

All has become an

Age of not believing,
And self doubting. 

 A Castaway
No one hears.

A barren isle 
On a lonely sea.

Where are endings with smiles?

Where did those dreams go ?

Face
The age of not believing.

Face
All that was ever known.

Start believing.

Something
Marvelous can be true.





Bedknobs and Broomsticks was a favorite of my family and I still love it.

    At the age of not believing

    1. It was fun. After the movie, I read the book. Like all movies, liberties were taken.

  11. I'm a realist, not a dreamer, but I see dreamy things in nature, animals, children and old people. I believe in goodness, empathy, love even, but not sure how it will all work out for the future.
