Almost... more like "The person you can trust most is yourself"

Mmmmm

Sumtimes I do not even trust myself.

I do not trust myself with money. I spend it.
I do not trust me when drunk. I get all cuddly with people.

Byron said:

i wholeheartedly agree, Byron! freely giving your trust, even at the risk of being disappointed, is much more liberating than being suspicious of people all the time.

what's the worst that could happen? somebody betrays your trust? it's not the end of the world - mostly, it speaks to their own immaturity.

PanthaGirl said:

well put!

I can uncderstand and appreciate where the sentiment comes from, but gosh, what a horrible existence. I've certainly felt that way at times of my life. But there are a few people around that I know I can trust no matter what. And I hope there are a few people out there who know they can trust me in the same manner.

Trust yourself to Trust others.....[b]And Hope Like Hell That You're Right

I don't even trust myself all of the time.

trust yo self



Trust yourself,
Trust yourself to do the things that only you know best.
Trust yourself,
Trust yourself to do what's right and not be second-guessed.
Don't trust me to show you beauty
When beauty may only turn to rust.
If you need somebody you can trust, trust yourself.


Trust yourself,
Trust yourself to know the way that will prove true in the end.
Trust yourself,
Trust yourself to find the path where there is no if and when.
Don't trust me to show you the truth
When the truth may only be ashes and dust.
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.

Well, you're on your own, you always were,
In a land of wolves and thieves.
Don't put your hope in ungodly man
Or be a slave to what somebody else believes.

Trust yourself
And you won't be disappointed when vain people let you down.
Trust yourself
And look not for answers where no answers can be found.
Don't trust me to show you love
When my love may be only lust.
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself

Byron said:

I totally agree with that. The pain from being betrayed goes away with time...the fear of not trusting can hold you back for a lifetime.

ive been betrayed in the work place

to quote dyls yet again

"they smile at your face but behind your back they hissss"

I missed you...

A winter’s day
In a deep and dark december;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I’ve built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It’s laughter and it’s loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

Don’t talk of love,
But I’ve heard the words before;
It’s sleeping in my memory.
I won’t disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.

I trust.... you have to...otherwise life can be pretty empty when you are alone. I have learned this lesson the hard way.

It was a general question really and not a state of mind.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

Good

i used to trust to easily so now it takes awhile to earn my trust. its no longer given away...its earned...you have to work for it.

its not impossible...just more difficult.

lillith said:

Co-Sign.

IMO, this is what comes with maturity, along with forgiveness

it's taken me 35 years to figure the later out

No matter how painful it can be to trust the wrong people I'd rather get hurt by trusting someone I shouldn't have than missing out on something great by not trusting someone who should have been trusted.

Ofcourse that doesn't mean I'm naive, but I'd rather give people the benefit of the doubt.

Hmmm... with friends, I can't really say that I can fully trust them, because I've been burned one too many times... sometimes on purpose, which led me to find that they weren't really a friend at all, and other times, when they think they are helping, but, in their desire to help they loose my trust.

There are three people on this planet that I have full and complete trust in... my mother, my grandmother and my husband, even being the prick he can be.
