Faith

There was a time when I believed much stronger than I do now. A time when all the problems that faced me and my world could easily be solved. A yesterday when a small child crept upon its knees and prayed with humble sincerity that could withdraw the wrath of the angriest of men let alone the gentle love of a fathering God. That was the past when the child had no doubts and believing was a simple act. As the child grows that time tends to end and like lost yesterdays a child grows away from simplicity. Todays are born too suddenly and a young adult grows distantly away from hymns and prayers we used to know. These nows are always with us as childish visions are put aside and gods are laid to rest with forgotten prayers and holy medals. Today, we've grown older, wiser and mature to be free and independent capable of solving our own unaided needs. Tomorrow though, now there's another time to be when an aging person's thoughts are left to ponder more serious and more important dreams. That will be a new unchartered time perhaps to search and believe again much stronger than ever before.
