Trust is broken


It was nothing short of shocking. To think that among all people, the person to break the secret would have to be you. I expected this to happen, but not you.

Trust is a very delicate yet powerful word. It either strengthens the relationship with the people whom you love and care for deeply, or it just breaks the bond between them just like how a sharp knife slice through the thich yet thin skin of a tomato. I can never understand why you do it in the first place.

No matter what the choices are, when you give  your word, you should uphold it all the way. As long as either party breaks it, the strength of the five letter word diminish rapidly in an instant, almost reaching a point of oblivion.

After many years of immersing myself in socio-political dynamics of events, this conclusion was not a surprising one.  All that is left is a bitter taste in me, but nothing can be done to salvage it. As a new saying on Tumblr goes, “ trust is like an eraser, the more someone attempts to destroy, it just shrinks and dies off by itself eventually”. I was a fool to have believed in the impossible.

Events like these reinforces the value in watching survivor.  People are there for you only when you are worthy for their usage. When you have no more interest value to the particular friend or person, you are just out of the picture.  It happens time and time again for the past 23 seasons and the 22 years of my life. It is a never changing fact. Of course, I am not generalizing every friend that I have on my list. There are still the elite few who are here just because they want to be here and value all the exchanges and friendship that has been built oer the years. However, I guess there is a little bit of this selfish streak in every one of us. Thus, being independent is the only key that allow you to survive in this harsh world.

This is indeed a sarcastic rebuttal to your actions. I wanted to give the good in humans a chance again. I want it to be renewed in my new faith and outlook to life. But, sadly, your actions have proved to me that my new faith is just a pack of wishful thinking.

 What now? You tell me. I am sick and tired of being nice to everyone. I see no reason as everyone chooses to take advantage of me in the end.
