How Many Of These Do You Agree With?

Rizzo, 26 August, 2011 at 11:20 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 21

Just been listening to 'Affirmation' by Savage Garden (don't ask!) and I was wondering which of these statements you agree with?

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse tv evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

    I agree with all of them to a certain extent. The ones that stand out are:

    I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
    I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
    I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
    I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
    I believe in love surviving death into eternity

    The ones I'm not so sure on are:

    I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
    I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned

    As an aside, I love this song and quite like SG.

    I was going to highlight the financial freedom one as I'm always struggling with money but I wouldn't say it was unfair?

    I believe them all apart from the sun setting on an argument. I only ever really argue with the OH and only about twice a year but it usually lasts at least 4 days and if i went with that rule it would have to be me always doing the making up.

    I believe the sun should never set upon an argument - I can't sleep if I'm angry.
    I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
    I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
    I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem - I think reading women's magazines has made me think negatively about food and about myself. And I hate that they keep telling me I need to tone up my thighs/make more effort with my hair/get rid of my stretchmarks. They are like a very critical mother.


    I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
    I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned
    I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
