Trust. A small and simple word that is extremely overused by everyone yet only a fair portion of humans know the deep meaning of it.
And as a matter of fact – you should never trust anyone. Even if you think the other person is your soulmate or worse your own family. One should never let their guards down for any single person. Everyone has their own twisted method of dealing with life. No one can be trusted. You might think, the said soulmate of yours is the love of your life and you can do anything and everything for them. Believe me, you can’t and you shouldn’t.
The human body works in conflicting and complex ways. It suggests you do certain things for the said person just to get the acceptance of them. Humans are in a constant seeking of acceptance, it’s a normal thing but it doesn’t mean it should be right. People need to stop pleasing others at the expense of their happiness. The moment you choose to trust the other person, in a sick and twisted way, you are giving them the power to hold and destroy you within seconds. If you trust them, you are happily walking in a lion’s dean. The said person can easily play with your emotions and hurt you.
As I mentioned earlier, the human body works differently, and sometimes different can be bad. The said person might not intentionally hurt you but the person doesn’t know what is good for you, no one does. Some people can brainwash your mind into thinking of certain something good for you when in reality it’s not.
You should never give the person the control to move you in your life. The steering wheel should always be in your hand, no need to be dependent on others when you have your own brain to function with.
Spread love and care in the world, because God knows, we humans are in crucial need of it, but trust is something you should hold deep with all your strength in your heart, for completely yourself. Being selfish is not always a bad trait to carry. You can’t get through life trying not to get hurt. You should make mistakes too, everyone does, but you can try not to be foolish by preventing the one that could’ve been avoided.
If you want to trust someone with who you can keep your full faith and accept to make you better, look at the mirror. You’ll see the only person you could rely on, “you”.
