When You Believe

Heard this song back the other day, that reminds how I used to like Mariah Carey song when I was in high school. The song becomes even better when these two divas, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey combined to sing for the OST of Prince of Egypt.


Lately, I have some confusion surrounding this word 'believe'. Do you believe what people tell you? Do you believe what is the real truth? At that it seems everything could be true now only to realize that all is fake later on in life. What you believe now may prove to be wrong later and what you don't believe now could actually be true later. Like that, how to believe anything?


Even women are hard to believe, cause they come with this built in feature called 'mouth not match with heart (hao pat dui sam).


So when I heard this song, I ask myself, 'What to believe?'. And I answered myself, 'That I really do not know'.


When You Believe - Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston


Many nights we've prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we knew we could

[Chorus:]
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will

You will when you believe

In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seemed like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
Yet now I'm standing here
My heart's so full, I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

[Chorus]

They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give
in to your fears
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way clear
through the rain
A small, but still, resilient voice
Says help is very near

[Chorus]

When u believe? the song is applicable for those who have faith in God... believe lead to faith and faith lead to miracles...

if you don believe in certain things, how will it happen? speaking bout true & fake ... its just a thin line to separate them ... all this and few angle and direction to justify ... if we look at only one side, sure we only see either the truth or the fake side... but there's always this "grey side" that conquer our lives all the time ....

its good when u have belief... at least, you wont demotivated ....

Believe is a very subjective topic. It is up to us...like the case where I believed the stranger and i ended up losing my phone. Haih...what to do, it is a matter of whether you could recover from the consequences of your belief. It might turn out good and it might turn out bad. At least when we belive, there is still hope...too much saliva coming out di..-end-
