For fans of the Apple TV+ series "Ted Lasso," that is instantly recognizable as the show's "Believe" sign:
Belief doesn't just happen because you hang something up on a wall. All right? It comes from in here. You know? And up here. Down here.
Only problem is we all got so much junk floating through us, a lot of times we end up getting in our own way. You know, crap like envy, or fear, shame. I don't want to mess around with that **** anymore. You know what I mean. Do you?
You know what I wanna mess around with? The belief that I matter, regardless of what I do or don't achieve. Or the belief that we all deserve to be loved, whether we've been hurt or maybe we've hurt somebody else. Or what about the belief of hope? Yeah? That's what I want to mess with.
Believing that things can get better. That I can get better. That we will get better.
Oh man. To believe in yourself. To believe in one another. Man, that's fundamental to being alive. And look, if you can do that, if each of you can truly do that, can't nobody rip that apart.
