I think this I bleieve essays are very interesting. They require remembering one simple believe or theory and running wild with it. You could litterally go anywhere with one simple line and that's why I think it is an amazing writing prompt and it is probably the best way to break the ice especially in blogging, when it's not something you are used to. I can relate to really any this I believe essay essentially. It's really not a case of whether I can relate, but more do I agree? My favorite of the this I believe essays was "Be cool to the Pizza guy" by Sarah Adams. There was a little bit of humor involved, but I love her philosophy. It's not that she's saying to only be kind to the pizza delivery people out there, she's really sayin to learn to be courteous and to be patient even when others aren't the same to you. She's saying to slow down and enjoy life, take it day by day, minute by minute and to stop and smell the roses every once in a while. Whether you choose to be patient with just the pizza guy or to enact this philosophy with everyone it's important to remember that you need to be kind to others and to show some patience and grace every once in a while. Sure we all feel like it's hard not to flip off that guy that cuts you off while driving down the highway, but we must show a little restraint and not let our egos control everything about us. It's important to remember that to someone else we are the pizza dude. Our own acts cause someone else to made the same decision to flip you off or just be patient. Which one will win over?
