Faith

What is faith? Faith is having boundless, inexhaustible and limitless confidence of winning, irrespective of the circumstances or barriers. It is the “never surrender” stance which one carries with himself/herself all through the expedition called life. Faith is something that outshines all the earthly ecstasies. Faith is something which makes an individual spirited and indomitable from “within”, and helps one triumph over all obstacles, irrespective of their timing and intensity.

Faith, not necessarily has to be on an object of devotion. It is much more deep and profound. Many a times, we base our faith on something, with which we are not able to relate. Such kind of faith gives us no peace and strength. It just confines us from our freedom, Freedom of expressing ourselves. More often that not, we are wedged in the ceremonial aspect of faith, that is to say, singing and boasting about our faith, which certainly does not give us the courage from within.

Since the very beginning, we are trained and preached to have faith on something. But the question is that is this “something” giving us the self-belief to thrive over our weaknesses. I doughtily diverge with “this something” giving ME the sense of being self-governing. Faith for me is having ceaseless self-confidence on my “inherent potential”. This very potential is my faith. Quite evidently, this faith says, that whatever happens to me, good or bad, I have the power to overcome it with the undaunted strength and courage which lies within me. I and only I am responsible for my happiness and grief. As long as I have a unflinching faith, nothing can quaver my emotional steadiness.

Faith for me is much more profound that anything else on this world. It is not a matter of expressing; rather, it is a matter of the heart. Finally, it is the heart which is important.
