Trust

Trust. What is trust?
According to the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, trust means a strong belief in the honesty, goodness etc of someone or something. According to the BBC English Dictionary, If you trust someone, you believe that they are honest to you and will not deliberately do anything to harm you. Yes. From reading this, you can obviously tell what the whole post is all about today. Trust.

believe, honesty, goodness of someone.

I've learnt the painful truth that no one can be trusted a hundred percent. The only person to trust fully is myself. I am sure that everyone of you people have experienced the feeling of doubt and an instinct that tells u when someone is lying to you. However, sometimes you are blinded so much by the trust and closeness between you and whoever that is that you couldn't see the real face that he or she really wears. You don't even realize that that same person could be lying to you. Because you TRUST him or her.[or i'm just blur] I am not writing this blog to talk bad about a particular person because i find that totally immature, [unless there is really no way the two of you could solve the problem, then it is quite therapeutic i think.] I just want to share my encounter with trust issues so that my readers could come to learn that my blog is NOT DEAD!!! and that they can learn something from it. [ i hope.. :) ]

it also really hurts when u learn that someone you're close to and trust does not necessarily trust you back, instead he or she hides things from you,(pain!!) and lie straight to your face. and what's worse, you don't realise it until the truth finds its way back to YOU! OUCH. to think that there is GOODNESS in that person for not trusting YOU! so what is it that we should do? never trust anyone ever again and suspects everyone whom u think is lying to you? isn't life about sharing stories, what u believe in and just say what u think is right? you don't have to go lying about YOU. you don't have to be ashamed of YOUrself. Just tell us the goddamn truth! or don't tell us anything at all. it's so simple.

i just read somewhere that a person who is not being trustworthy or trusting may have a very competitive behaviour with others. i start to think, hmm, tht is quite true, after thinking bout the people in my life who i don't really trust and considering what an older friend told me. they are always thinking, "if i tell her this, she would think that she's better than me. No, i can't show her i'm worse." well this is what i think. it's not necessarily based on someone. i guess there are reasons why people are not very trusting towards other people. it is for their own benefit. but hey, as long as i know i'm not doing anything wrong. Not to trust depresses me. i need to trust. i can't don't trust. It is too stressful for me. this line means something to me.. (well actually it makes me feel better maybe cause of my naiveness)

It is better to suffer wrong than to do it, and happier to sometimes be cheated than not to trust.
