I have faith in myself and the people around me. I do not need a God or higher power to conjure my faith. I have always thought that living in faith of a God or higher power is only a coping mechanism to get through life and I don't want or need that. I feel that my life is fuller just by thinking, appreciating, and being guided by my own individualistic path. I am constantly questioning things and it gives my life more meaning than just living on automatic. When things get hard, I have faith in *myself* that I can get by and everything will turn out ok. I am responsible for my choices and actions and this governs a lot of my thoughts on faith.
