i have never had faith in anything. I was born an atheist. this needs to change.
How to find faith
It made me 
"I found faith!"
How I did it: It started merely because I had an experience that I could not explain satisfactorily in a naturalistic framework. The only explanations were to be found in Buddhism. As my faith as grown, so has the depth of my experiences, and there is no turning back.
Lessons & tips: Do not wish; do not hope; do not dream. Simply live and the answers will reveal themselves to you.

..because my mom wants me to. And I think it is important for my daughter to have that experience. But I don’t know what i believe. I want to believe in something.

I believe that there is/are a higher power(s).
I just don’t understand the context in which I believe.
I want to explore a variety of belief systems.
Something long missing from my life...

It’s a strange thing, how we process things in our minds.
Being non-religious left me the luxury of not falling under their rules, dogma, perceived punishment…
so now that I am thinking more about it; more about my own mortality and thinking that maybe it would be good to have some guidance because, well, let’s face it: so far, going my own way ain’t working. I want to believe in something more. I want to think that there is some divine power out there that can create miracles. I want to think that if I dedicate my life to God, that I will feel better… and not just feel like a chump.
There are so many questions that I have. So many.

I’m not religious. I was born and raised Catholic, I even got confirmed before I realized that I wasn’t a part of a religion for myself and because of faith, but because it was what I was told to do. There are a lot of things that I don’t believe in that institutionalized religion stands for.
But I feel like now I’m not only lacking a religion but a faith. I want to know more about the world’s religions before I settle down to one or, more than likely, decide to remain Agnostic.
Hoping this book might help, not such much “enlighten” me, but at least open my eyes to other ways of looking at things, rather than… not looking at them at all, which is what I’ve been doing.

i dunno.
i can’t help but feel like i really disappointed my folks in that i don’t go to church regularly. even though i feel better after going to church, more often than not, i prefer to just think about how much God blessed me quietly, by myself or with a drink, over a pretty scene.
i like the solitude over being surrounded by the masses, i guess… no pun intended.
I've always had it..

I was looking at the wrong defination of faith, i don’t need a religon, i have my own beliefs and i’m happy with them, i don’t need to accept what anyone else believes.

I tried various different religions and methods of practising faith, and finially studied the Bible with Jehovah’s Witnesses. Im not baptised and very happy because ive found a faith which i can really pick to pieces and get answers from! Id definatly say give the Bible a chance because there are so many mis-conseptions about it, and Jehovahs witnesses simple want to help you to learn about whats actually in the Bible. Anyhow, all the best for reaching this goal.
