Trust...???



Today I learnt an invaluable life lesson regarding trust and its limitations.
- With out trust there are no relationships and infact there is no humanity
- Any relationship builds on trust between or among individuals (From business to marriage to friendship)
- We should never break that trust (No ifs and buts). If you do break that trust, even if later you reconcile with that person, the relationships not the same or, in worst case, no relationship at all.
- Trustworthiness is the character that one earns by stridently following its principles and taking pride in that till the end.
- Forgiving the individual for the breach of trust is a generous act and often changes the individual who broke that trust but we shouldn't be that naive as to keep on believing the deceptive person. If you are, then you have yourself in the whole world to blame and have to bear the consequences.
- Dont get cofused here with compassion....it is forgiving the person...but trusting an untrust worthy person is entirely different. One shows your generosity and the other case show your lack of selfrespect.
So live on these principles and more often than not you wont get your self into a bog.
