<p>Guitarman- faith is basically true belief in something. I think it essential to have faith in life-- belief in a cause, a religion, a person, yourself, etc. The reason I think this is because if you never have faith in anyone or anything else it makes life much harder–for example, if you are working on a project and you don’t have faith in your coworkers to do their jobs, you end up doing them. If you don’t have faith in your friends you can’t rely on them to do things when asked. If you don’t have faith in yourself, you constantly second guess everything you do.</p>
