I just fear the more I talk the more proud I become. Humility is a goal of mine. Humility or pride come with knowing the 'I'. If you are feeling proud then you are seeing yourself. Work your faith more till the only 'I' remaining is the most high God. The journey has never been easy. It is a test of fire. I have accepted its not easy.I've finally seen life as a walk through a gallery,more of appreciation and less of criticism. I have resolved myself to the possibility that I might never know the truth or the 'I' but my passion for discovering both just burns more from that. ChessMaster, define 'faith'. Ah,faith.This time I won't use the dictionary. Faith is a personal belief in which you are willing to commit yourself to through good and bad times. Define more rigorously. Faith and belief are the same. No?

Faith and belief are the same. No? I can believe in a lot of things but I have faith in a few things. The difference to me is the amount of investment I place in the belief and how much I let it define me and my actions. Uncertainty is certain.Let go

ChessMaster, therefore the 'I' is real, and it chooses real things called 'investments'.
What differentiates between what you believe in, and what you have faith in? Illusion?

I forgot to give the day. Day of worship and contemplation.

Can a man believe, what he cannot believe?
If yes, then faith doesn't exist. And God doesn't exist. Energy doesn't exist. There's nothing.
But there's something, isn't there? Why? What is there?
The man and the butterfly, Man God!
I am!
