Throughout the years I have put my faith in many different things, each leading disastrously to a momentous letdown, each proving itself insufficient.
From drugs, to girls, to friends, all of my faith has slipped away from me in one form or another, with the exception of two examples.
I have faith in God, the God of my Understanding, to guide me to where I need to be, and to watch over me and see that I get there safely, and also to enable me to help as many as I can along the way.
God as I Understand him is embodied in Nature, and that is where I look for him and seek my inspiration, when I have the opportunity.
He has pulled me out of the downward spiral of aimless indifference and reestablished a purpose in my life, something I have been sorely lacking for a good long while (namely, my whole life).
And the other example is my faith in mankind. Although at times it seems unwarranted, there are those moments when I get the validation of my belief in the inherent goodness of people, and those moments are to be cherished more than any others, bolstering my spirit and replenishing my hope for a brighter future, one which can be brought about if only enough of us realize our potential and work toward a noble end.
Today, I can say that I have faith, and tomorrow, well, who knows what the future holds?...
Much Love,
