What is faith? Faith in religion, faith in yourself, faith in others, faith in love? Perhaps it isn't knowing that someone is going to be there for you forever, because, though I believe in forever, it's difficult at times to accept it when life proves otherwise. Perhaps it's more of praying, wishing and hoping that you'll make it through, and believing that it's more than enough to have that someone in your life.
