Trust..

is a funny thing.


Trust (definition from dictionary.com) :
1.reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc., of a person or thing; confidence.
2.confident expectation of something; hope.
3.confidence in the certainty of future payment for property or goods received; credit: to sell merchandise on trust.
4.a person on whom or thing on which one relies: God is my trust.



fragile and thin, it still manages to bind the strongest relationships together in a way that they cannot be broken.




and yet, at the right spot -in a split second- it can be irreparably destroyed.
what is it, then, that compels one to trust another?





life gives us no reason to trust anyone.
murders, theft, kidnappings and whatnot - it plagues this world, infests people and leaves them rotten inside and out.




how then does one even want to start trusting somebody?
what initiates this high-risk venture?
and how does one define trust?
something so fragile, yet strong - how does one hold on to it so tightly?




how does one ensure complete trust in something?
why does one even want to trust something?



logic debunks things.
emotion sways one's thinking.
but yet, trust is able to overcome them both.
logic- the very thing that keeps us thinking.
emotion - the very thing that keeps us human.




how is trust more powerful than both of them combined?







trust is such a mysterious thing, no?
