Believe in what I value.

I believe in what I value.

*** ***

Hi,

The exact meaning of the sentence should be, "I consider what I value as important"?

I guess, this one cannot be the same with "I believe what I value", i.e. without "in".

What shoud be the exact meaning of the sentence?

Difficult question - I'm not sure there is any perfect answer. I would say that the sentence 'I believe in what I value' = I believe in the values I hold true.

Thanks so much JohnParis!!

But it's still vague to me...

"I believe in the values I hold true." reads very clear to me, but why such interpretation is possible is still vague to me.
