What do you believe? Write about your core beliefs. Here is an example.  
I Believe
 I believe in the love of life
The music that shakes my bones
The laughter that throws all cares away
The art of a story
The “second chance” rule
Love as an emotion, unity and forgiveness.
 But the idea of war acting as a problem solver doesn’t prove whose right. It only proves whose left.
 I believe in what goes around comes around
I believe in fantasy as my reality
I believe in plaid pants
Mismatched socks, groovy tights and acid washed jeans.
And I believe in saying how I feel about something no matter the crowd,
 No matter the crowd
