It seems simple enough; either you trust someone or you don't. They are worthy or they're not. If you're smart, you'll be just fine.

Except it isn't that simple.

I don't trust easily if at all. For a good portion of my life, I thought it was because there were too many untrustworthy people. I've always trusted (there's that damn word again!) my intuition about people, and I've rarely been wrong.

But there it is: I expected certain things from people, and I got exactly what I expected. I vibrated certain expectations, and they delivered. Now, that doesn't mean that we would have ever been best buddies or that they wouldn't provide a "contrast" for me.

So then, what is trust? Ultimately, it's about trusting ME. It's about trusting that no matter what, I can handle whatever comes my way and use it as a lesson, a gift, to move me closer to what I desire.

One of my intentions for this year is to work on trusting myself because I know my lack of trust is holding me apart from what I want. It's what keeps me from speaking out, it's what keeps me from letting others close to me, it's what keeps me from going as far as I'd like in taking risks.

I have to know that no matter what, I'm okay, and then expect it all to be okay.

trust is never simple. it's the hardest thing to get from other people. aside from respect, it's also the most fragile.

tama si gillboard. trust is the hardest to get from other people. normal na chismoso lang ata mga pinoy kaya mahirap mag-trust. piling-pili lang.

hmmm, mukhang may problema ka nga sa pagtitiwala sa mga tao sa paligid mo.. may tawag sa ganyan eh, kapag iniisip mo nangyayari talaga..

sa tingin ko dapat kasi isip mo yung magandang bagay para yun ang mangyari, kasi kung puro negative, hindi maganda talaga yun..

Trust isn't all about condoms. Nah, just kidding. Ha ha.

I guess I lost our instinct to trust people so easily when we were kids. I've been through a lot of shit, so trust to me is a milestone that will always be a step forward or backward.

I always trust people even with wrong ones kaya nga minsan naaabuso rin ako... pero it's ok..it's part of my learning process... I'm now more cautious with regards to giving favors... On the other hand, I trust myself more than others... I know I will always be okay no matter what...jejejejejejejeje

I agree with Gillboard. I think people trust everyone by default, until a person breaks the trust, and the has to earn it back. Which is next to impossible...

We're never so vulnerable than when we trust someone - but paradoxically, if we cannot trust, neither can we find love or joy...

Trust has never been easy to dispense or earn, and it can be easily shattered. It is also the hardest to mend. But I guess if you know yourself and know enough of the person you lay your trust onto, then all would be well.

When two people are in love, they are eager to have more sweet kisses. But why they are in quarrel, they are hurting each other by the mouths that once used for kissing? Every time when I was upset or tired, I can only kiss by myself.
