"Faith is reason gone courageous, not the opposite of reason, to be sure, but something more than reason and never satisfied by reason alone. A step always remains beyond the range of light." --Thomas Graham
For my life, I am finding more and more that the meaning of faith is what is stated above. There are some things in life that are logical. Yet there are some things in life that beg you to go beyond logic, reach out, & grab for something that you "have a feeling" is there but have no "hard evidence" to back up your feeling.
I'm beginning to realize that there are some things in life that are naturally unable to manifest itself into "hard evidence". Therefore, I'm realizing more & more to be a person of faith is one of the bravest lives you can pursue.
When I die, that is one thing I would love to be synonymous with as people remember the life I lived. "Boy, Neil may not have been the sharpest tool in the shed; but you gotta hand it to him, he sure was brave".

"....and he was sharp to - not only in dress!"
People want to have faith - they just don't always have enough faith in themselves to act on it.
