BELIEF:
Belief is the thought that something is in essence true. This truth could be anything, like someone believing there is no reality. One could believe in Creationism. Or—one of my favorite examples—one could believe mustard tastes like candy (a belief my sisters instilled in me at the age of four so I would eat said condiment). Whatever the belief shapes one’s reality and how they perceive life.
FAITH:
The closest two words in describing faith include trust and belief, meaning that faith is a trust in something someone believes. This trust could be in a person or in a concept. Of course, there is the long and much argued link with faith and religion. Many claim faith is the belief in something unseen, and is hence illogical.
