TRUST ME......

How many times have you heard those words...."TRUST ME"
 
 
Trust is the hardest thing to find and the easiest to lose. I can't speak for anyone else except myself, but I can listen, and the more I listen to others.....the more I see that trust is a huge issue with many people.  I personally believe that to be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved.  I heard some say these last few days that they learned the best way to prevent their heart from getting broken is to act like they dont have one.  With that attitude, and having a hardened heart, they have found that doesnt work either.  I came across this short story about a father and his daughter....
 
 
A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.  The father was kind of scared so he asked his little girl " sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river".  The little girl said " No, daddy, you hold my hand."   her dad was puzzled and asked his daughter " what's the difference?"  "There's a big difference, If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go, but if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go."    You see, in any relationship the essence of trust is in the bonding....So, i think we should hold the hand of the person whom we love rather than expecting them to hold yours....
 
 
Forever, well as long as I can remember, I have a tendacy to keep a wall or having a guard around me.  I don't let many people inside that wall, it's takes awhile, if ever.  I will admit I keep most at an arms lenght away, due to having the fear of being there one minute and gone the next...I don't do well with that! I'd like to say that I'll start letting my guard down when people stop giving reasons to keep it up.    I openly admit that I may have trust issues, but some people seem to have an issue with the responsibility of being trusted. 
 
If everyone was to really take a look at themselves and ask if they have ever been betrayed, or the trust has been broken, most have encountered in some kind of broken trust, either they were the trust breaker or the opposite end.  I feel really strongly that people who truly deserve your trust are those who will never have the courage to lie to you.
 
Trust takes years to build, yet seconds to shatter....trust is like a broken mirror...once its BROKEN you can never look at it the same again.
 
Sometimes, you have to take a chance because what if??
 
WHAT IF?
 
Belle never loved the beast?
Ariel stayed as a mermaid?
Cinderella never forget her slipper?
Snow White never ate her apple?
 
what if they never met them, him or her?
 
Life is not a fairytale, but having someone you can trust, is worth more than any magic Walt Disney has to offer!
 
Hello... of coarse no one likes to be lied to...the worst part of being lied to is knowing that you werent worth the truth. And trust is not about who is real to your face, it's about who stays real behind your back. Trust enables you to put your deepest feelings and fears in the palm of someones hand, knowing they will be handled with care.....yet when you trust someone with your life, when you trust someone to never share you with someone eles, when you trust someone to keep their promises and they don't...how do people do that? how do they sleep when they lay their head down on a pillow? when you tell someone your inner deepest thoughts, dreams, fears, and believe in your heart and soul these things are safe with someone, then find out later they weren't safe at all.  You can't trust someone who lied to you...especially when it was agreed upon to agree to disagree and it be ok, and when strictly honesty turned into a lie here and there. yet i can say.......
 
"it isn't your fault, it was mine for believing every word you said!"
 
Just within days i have seen many women with trust issues, both ways..they can't be trusted and they can't trust anyone.  They have cuts, scars, bruises, lies and fake laughs.  Fake smiles, constant cries and a horrifying past.  Promises broken, lost loves and the" trust me"  that didn't last.  Some give up and some refuse to give up...at some point we will be able to trust again
 
Because of His AMAZING GRACE....
