Trust

I've been a delinquent blogger, but am making an effort to be better. Now that I've gotten that off my chest, on to deeper thoughts.
The last weekend has gotten me thinking about trust and the people we give our trust. Funny how it takes us sometimes years to be able to share our most buried secrets with those we love and feel safe and comfortable about telling them. And how there are some people in our lives that we don't even hesitate to share every single detail of our lives with. But the confidence of giving someone your trust raises many questions. When someone commits to another person, and lets their guard down, gives themselves fully, meaning they have put complete faith in someone, what happens when that trust is broken? How can someone who you thought cared about you could be so heartless? Is it unreasonable to demand something in return for being so blatantly lied to, deceived?
What makes someone trustworthy? There is no one act that can really tell us a person is worthy of our trust. And, if we do have complete faith in someone, how do we know they’re not lying or honoring our trust on their end of the relationship? Is it wrong to say that we are being brave in trusting anybody?
What happens someone betrays our trust? What makes anyone worthy of our trust beyond that point?
Its amazing how little remorse people will feel after betraying someone so intensely. What is the logic behind justifying any sort of behavior? How can someone who you thought cared about you could be so heartless? Is it unreasonable to demand something in return for being so blatantly lied to, deceived? And how many times can a person make up if their trust was broken? Just because someone makes a mistake doesn't mean they don't deserve a second chance or the opportunity to make it up to you. How valuable is trustworthiness?
