张小洁：广东外语外贸大学，

a couple of weeks ago, when i learned the theme of today?s competition, i asked some of my

roommates: “what does ?faith? mean to you?” just coming back from a philosophy class, the girls were in a poetic mood: “faith is what john lennon had when he wrote the legendary song ?imagine? and dreamed of ?world peace?”, “faith is what the hebrews had when they followed moses through the red sea in search of their freedom.” “and faith is what the pilgrims had when they journeyed to that strange land on mayflower, and

started their pursuit of a new life.”

thanks for the history lesson girls, but i was not asking for a great, historic event where faith might have altered the entire course of humanity. all i asked was “what does faith mean to you, to us, the individuals toiling with life?s hard choices each day?” personally speaking, faith is like oxygen: i didn?t know how precious

my heart stirs still every time memory brings me back to three years ago, when the devastating
