"We have to dsitrust each other. Its our only defense against betrayal"

Do we not need trust at all, where in all essence is the root from which betrayal stems?

Why do we feel betrayed? It's because we put trust in someone, and that trust is abused. So is it as simple as Mr. Williams' quote?

Questions questions questions...

Now, i would really like to believe Mr. Williams, but again, do you think its easy going through life without someone/anyone to trust. I would like to believe that its a yes and no, the way it is with most things. In relation to trust, trust is earned. Its a reward so to say, to those acquaintances or people who have proven to you that your trust in them is warranted. Trust is something sacred that should be cherished, a gift given only to the deserving few. But then again, we must ask, how do we know who to give this trust to? That is something, sadly, i cannot answer for all... we know, only we know.

The reason why i say this, i mean why i said the whole preceding pragraph is because the few people we trust, the less chance of betrayal, for betrayal comes from people who dont deserve your trust, someone you barely know maybe, but still in ignorance trust is still given to them? but in my opinion, its not so much ho you trust, the point of me writing this is to examine the consequences of that betrayal.

Is it that simple to simply disregard that eprson and ignore them, cut them off completely from your life, i admit, that is indeed the desired route. However, sometimes we are faced, or put in a situation where this is just not possible, as this person could be at that point in time, someone who is "inextricably" ( ahahha, i am laughing silently as there is an inside joke regarding the use of this word) linked to us that we cant really afford to cut them off. So what should we do then, its not so much what we do, but what should the betrayer do? Sometimes they should try everything in their power or anything they can to earn back our trust, or in some cases, extreme cases i must say, we simply just close the door and leave them outside. What i am trying to ssay, something which is prevailent throught this blog as well as my principle in life is that there are always consequences for everything that we do, and in the case of betrayed trust, the consequences are bad, and it should be avoided at all cost.

I will get back to this topic of trust and betrayal soon, this shall we say, is just a teaser, this topic willl be revisited.
