~Trust~

In early morning, I was hooked up with a topic in a conversation with a long-time-no-c friend. Trust. How much can we trust someone? Out of boredom, I shot the question at him. He refused to comment though. It can't be generalised. Well it's very true. Thinking back, only I came to realized that I had trusted so many people in my life. Almost everyone. Close, good, not so close friends. Was it foolish by the way? Or I'm just being naive to think that nobody would want to cheat on me and hurt my feelings.

Well, this is me. I trust people. I offer them the access to unlock my heart and become my friends. To join me in the circle of life. I usually show everyone my heart before they do. I love the satisfaction when they would eventually show theirs to you too. I thought this is the way to build a friendship or whatever-ship you wish for. I see cynics, cheaters, players, gentlements, loyals, and infatuated ones. At the end of the day, they are all the same. A gentlement sometimes can be a player. A player turns out to be the loyal. The infatuated would become a jerk. So why do we trouble ourselves to find out which category they belong to? So don't try to 'crown' them with 'title' anymore. In fact, the critical and tricky part here is the question of whether they can be trusted. We're on our own to decide from here onwards.

A good friend had always reminded me, "Trust the people in this world NO more." The cynical attitudes bothers me even more when he continued with "I don't trust u too." But he made his point sometimes. I just returned a smile to him. Lately, I kinda 'see' it through. I see the point that he is trying to deliver to me. I've been listening and thinking alot. I finally make my way up to the surface and breathe before I suffocate myself...

However, I'm still holding my own concept. I will show you my heart...and you show me yours. Will you?
