I just couldn't fathom how this happened, I was almost sure that eventually I would wake up from a terrible dream. Faith will change, as one grows older, mine certainly has. When I was nine, I didn't know much about faith. All I knew was my own made up faith, which I lost temporarily after the accident. By now, I have developed a new and different kind of faith, but after that Christmas, I began to question what exactly faith is and how it works.
Faith is something that works in funny ways.
I had faith in what I believed in when I was a little girl, but it wasn't enough. I don't understand how a child can believe so much in one thing or another, yet it can still get taken away from them so quickly. No, I don't know how faith works at all or why I value it so much, but I do know that it gives some people motive to get through each day. People doubt it all the time, which is only natural.
