Day 09 - Your beliefs
I believe that everything exists for a reason. Not in the "I was put on this earth to do x" way, but rather that there are specific chains of events which have made the universe, the world, you, and I the way we are. Whether this is due to intelligent design, fate, or the power of science is less important to me. I personally believe that fate is the gearworks of existence and fortune is the collective ghosts in the machine. I believe in humility. I believe that Pliny the Elder was history's greatest hero. I believe in lessons in all things. I believe that there are degrees of success - you have only truly failed at something if you have learned nothing in its doing.
