Trust... Earned when Actions meet with Words.

 

Trust... a thin boundary which grows wider over the years with efforts spent, with realizations and sense of believe that creeps inside us making us feel comfortable gradually.

So, how does it happen? Manually or Automatically? Actually both. You do things for a person, who may be anyone in your life, out of your own will that makes the other person believe that there is a certain understanding and comfort. This sows the first sapling of belief. With time and more of such gestures, the sapling gets the nourishment needed to grow, automatically.

So far so good. Right? Yes.

"Without communication there is no relationship, without respect there is no love. Without TRUST, there is no reason to continue." 

Its good to have few people in life whom you can reach out for or just be assured that they are there. Its a great feeling... super great! These few people give you the mental peace and assurance even if you are not regularly in touch. You just feel motivated and optimistic by being around a few people. You feel a lot of positive energy around. A sense of relief that if somethings goes unplanned you can reach out to them. They understand what you say and sometimes what you don't after a period of time. Its equally important to trust people around you by treating them fairly. Believing in them and giving them a chance to prove it just like you would have wished.

Trusting your family, your friends, your partner or your colleagues. Trusting the conditions, situations and believing in the outcomes. It is everywhere if you think.

BUT...How can everything go as planned? Its life right... It has its own ingredients of making a cocktail. So where's the twist?

"Trust takes years to build, seconds to break and forever to repair."

Trust do gives you positive energy but what if the person you happened to trust knowingly/unknowingly broke it? If someday you get to know that your faith was being thrashed?


It hurts. A lot. Depends on how long you have had this belief. How much effort you put in for this trust to get flourished. Its not at all easy to stand it if it breaches. The positive energy as a whole seems like soaked out of your body and you can feel the negativity creeping in. To manage this is one part, the other is to believe that you can trust again. Too much.. no?

"Trust is like a mirror. Once its broken its never seen again and no matter how hard you try to put it back together, the cracks will always show."

Isn't it a better option to not trust anybody ever? Many people might be doing that already but I feel be it businessman or politicians, they also need to trust one or the other person. You can't stop living because of the fear of death, right? So a more practical way should be to not blind trust anybody and let this process get matured over a sufficient period of time. Till then keep your eyes and ears open. Don't assume things to just be but keep validating. This won't guarantee that you won't face setbacks but yes reduce the chances of it for sure. So, 

    "Fool me once, shame on You. Fool me Twice, shame on Me."
