I watched Macy’s “Old Friends” commercial during the Thanksgiving Day Parade. It speaks to our beliefs. What is stable, consistent in our ever-changing lives? What do we come back to again and again? What pursues us?

What do we believe?

We sometimes skim over such questions, or we revisit them seasonally or in crises or frustration, but maybe today is a good day to pause long enough to reflect on our beliefs. We can get caught up in ourselves and how we change over time, and we can bury some of the consistencies, some of those deep-seated questions, needs, and beliefs. But regardless of how infrequently we think about them, they still pull a consistent thread of connection through our lives. Something that consistently deserves our attention.

So, what do you believe?
