We take a lot of what we're talking about in science on faith we posit a theory, and until it's dis-proven we have faith that it's true.

Life doesn't offer you promises whatsoever so it's very easy to become, 'Whatever happened to... ?' It's great to be wanted. I spent a few years not being wanted and this is better.
