Faith

Who can have faith?
Really truly believe

What is faith?
"believing in that which we cannot see, certain of what we hope for"

Sometimes with faith alone amazing things can happen.
Faith has a power that surpasses all reason and logic

Some say faith is foolish why trust in something that you cannot see?
but I say why put your trust in something that will not last. That is uncertain?

because when you have faith you are 100% certain that it is true; that it will happen.
of course this raises the question of if what you put your faith in is real.

We all put our faith in something/someone.
Whether it be ourselves, others, money, power, pleasure, relationships, God, humanity, logic, knowledge

it is a fact of life

We believe that these things will bring us meaning, purpose, happiness, fulfillment
but as we grow older and learn, gradually we see that in somethings our faith was placed wrongly.
As we see the mistakes we have made we move on and find something else to put our faith in.
It repeats until we find THE TRUTH.

Soon faith becomes reality or illusion
and it is no longer faith but truth

of course there can only be one truth.
Still faith is needed because not all is revealed only some
