trust.


As someone who believes that most people trust me, I generally instill a lot of trust in other people. In fact, I know people trust me, so I try to do the same with them.
This being said, I do not believe everyone is good. To some extent, I believe that everyone has a bit of evil within them that can come out when needed or wanted, save all the time.
For many, trust is something that needs to be granted--like one with of the three a genie might dole out. I know people that dont trust best friends or people they have known for their entire lives, some people dont even trust their parents.
Its sometimes difficult for me to understand that. If someone is your friend, you should be able to trust them. If you cant trust someone, then why would they be close to you? I guess the answer to that question is that sometimes people get sucked in. They get pulled into the swirling hole with no way to escape and cannot get out once imprisoned.
When someone breaks the trust that you have instilled in them, it is difficult to simply understand why.
Why is it so hard to do the right thing or at least, admit why you've done the wrong thing?
I guess its almost impossible to understand because you can only do what feels right in your heart, not in someone else's. Sometimes its hard to understand and realize that everyone has different morals and reasons for doing something. I wonder if someone lives their life with regret when they know they have done something wrong.
Many times I wonder if trusting people is the right thing to do. Whether people deserve the trust that I try and give to them when they obviously dont trust themselves or others and violate the trust given to them.
*I know this post is a bit repetitive. Just getting some thoughts out.
