Sometimes it feels like yesterday and sometimes it feels like someone else's memory

Trust is a fragile thing. Once earned, it affords us tremendous freedom. But once trust is lost, it can be impossible to recover. Of course the truth is we never know who we can trust. Those we're closest to can turn around and betray us, and total stranges can come to our rescue. In the end, most people decide to trust only themselves. It really is the simplest way to keep from getting burned.

But you know what? There are a people I trust even though it eludes me why. Maybe its the blind faith I'm putting in them in hopes that I'm right; or maybe its because they've entrusted me with a part of them and I somehow feel like I have to reciprocate. There are a thousand maybes; a thousand reasons why. I spend a lot of time looking for reasons and answers, but you just can't find what's not there.
