This story began with a video sent to me by a friend…
In life, it often happens: you go about your day, pondering a certain topic, but you can’t put the whole puzzle together… some little pieces are missing…
And suddenly, something appears and triggers a chain of associations… everything immediately falls into place, and instead of scattered fragments, a complete picture comes together.
That’s how it was this time. I turn on the video, soar up on a wave, there’s jubilation inside, a cry bursts from within: “That’s it!”
And a new stage in life begins )))))))))
An ordinary coincidence, which has become more of a norm in life than something surprising.
Later, I followed the link to the website and delved into the essence of the movement organized by Kim McGregor in memory of her departed friend Erica, which is called “I Believe She’s Wonderful.” The movement aims to unite and inspire 1,000,000 wonderful women across the globe.
I was struck by the idea itself:
Each of us has had a woman/mother/friend in our lives who supported us in a difficult moment, who left a mark on our lives… so why not openly express our gratitude to her?!
To light up a smile on her face and joy in her heart?!
And the song used in the video doesn’t just inspire… let its lyrics pass through your heart, and you’ll understand what I mean:
I Believe performed by Yolanda Adams
[tabs][tab title=”I Believe“]
They told you that you wouldn’t make it,
And it’s been tough since then.
But forget the nights when you shed tears,
Because you didn’t take anything to heart.
You really worked hard,
Knowing exactly what you wanted and needed,
So believe: you will never give up.
You will achieve what you desire.
Just turn to your soul and say:
[Chorus:]
I believe I can,
I believe I will,
I believe my dreams are achievable,
I believe I will stand,
I believe I will dance,
I believe I will soon become real,
And that’s what I believe…
Your goals are what’s in your soul,
And you know your actions will reveal them.
In your mind, you keep painting images.
So just believe that in time they will become reality.
Everything will be fine,
Leave all worries and anxieties behind,
Just let go.
Let the music flow inside,
Forget the pain
And start believing….
[Chorus:]
I believe I can,
I believe I will,
I believe my dreams are achievable,
I believe I will stand,
I believe I will dance,
I believe I will soon become real,
And that’s what I believe…
Oh, oh, yeah!
(Musical interlude)
No matter what others say —
Hold your head high, turn your face
To all hopes and dreams.
I will believe,
Even though it seems it’s not for me.
I won’t give up, I will hold on,
With my gaze fixed on the sky.
I will achieve everything I want,
I will always believe…
[Chorus: 2 times]
I believe I can,
I believe I will,
I believe my dreams are achievable,
I believe I will stand,
I believe I will dance,
I believe I will soon become real,
And that’s what I believe… (I believe in myself)
I believe I can,
I believe I will,
I believe that my dreams are achievable,
I believe that I will endure,
I believe that I will dance,
I believe that soon I will become real,
And this is what I believe…
I truly believe, hey hey!

They said you wouldn’t make it so far uh uh
And ever since they said it, it’s been hard
But nevermind the nights you had to cry
Cause you have never let it go inside
You worked real hard
And you know exactly what you want and need
So believe and you can never give up
You can reach your goals
Just talk to your soul and say
[Chorus:]
I believe I can (I can)
I believe I will (I will)
I believe I know my dreams are real (know my dreams are real)
I believe I’ll stand (Oh yea)
I believe I’ll dance
I believe I’ll grow real soon and (That’s why)
That is what I do believe
Your goals are just a thing in your soul uh uh
And you know that your moves will let them show
You keep creating pictures in your mind
So just believe they will come true in time
It will be fine
Leave all of your cares and stress behind
Just let it go
Let the music flow inside
Forget all your pain
And just start to believe
[Chorus:]
I believe I can (I believe I can oh yea)
I believe I will
I believe I know my dreams are real (All of my dreams are real)
I believe I’ll stand
I believe I’ll dance (I gotta dance)
I believe I’ll grow real soon and (ooo)
That is what I do believe
Whoa oa oa YEAH!
(Music break)
Nevermind what people say
Hold your head high and turn away
With all our hopes and dreams
I will believe
Even though it seems it’s not for me
I won’t give up I’ll keep it up
Look into the sky
I will achieve all my needs
I will always believe…
[Chorus: 2x]
I believe I can
I believe I will (I can)
I believe I know my dreams are real (I got strength)
I believe I’ll stand

I believe I’ll grow real soon and (watch me watch me watch me)
That is what I do believe (I do believe in me)
I believe I can

I believe I know my dreams are real
I believe I’ll stand
I believe I’ll dance (I gotta dance)
I believe I’ll grow real soon and
That is what I do believe
