I was touched by Beyond Blue reader Franco’s comment on the combox of my post, “12 Ways to Handle Jealousy and Envy,” in which he wrote:
I think that three little words, I love you, always work magic at some level – but I think that four little words are perhaps even more magical – I believe in you. So, I try to say the first three words with my actions and the second four words with my voice. They create a resonance, some sort of harmonic vibration that rings true in the soul. It won’t replace good counsel and the pharmaceuticals that bring RELIEF, but it’s always nice to have a little spiritual high with a little help from our friends and loved ones.
P.S. Kenny Rogers sang a song once, “She Believes In Me”. I can hear it even now in my mind and feel a sense of peace and comfort. Wow.

A coda to “She Believes In Me”:
The plot of the song is that the male narrator (Kenny Rogers) has tried various and sundry gigs as an singer, not always successfully. So the point is not that she (his lover) believes in his career; it’s that she believes in HIM.
