U&TB

Understanding & Trustworthy Being

The other day, I was asked what do I see in a U&TB. I probably feel a high level of comfort being around that somebody, and even when we are apart, I feel so comfortable knowing the person is dependable as well as always being truthful. In life, I feel we need as much U&TB characters around us to make us feel better about ourselves and to be around when times are hard. Such being can be seen as a very dear friend.. a type that can be compatible in believing the same things we look highly upon, a type that can support us in wading through tough times, a type that can have the same traits that we highly appreciate in ourselves..

The way I see it, a U&TB can be similar in the way we possess a perspective in life. We may see things commonly along the same view. Trustworthy is a difficult trait to have and believe in.. since it takes time to achieve that. I believe that time plays an important role in getting ourselves to become trustworthy to one another. But since we are only human after all, we can never achieve that trustworthy 100%.. there will be times when we'd feel the urge to forget how much people trust in us and simply do the opposite.

Yesterday, something happened that made me begin to ask questions about one U&TB who I consider to be very special.

To me, it kind of breaks my heart to know that my trust towards this particular person is shaky. I suppose we all would feel hurt when this happens. Since trust is a very delicate matter. Trusting someone with your might, is the most important deal out of any relationship, being it friendship, career wise as well as in the family circle that we have. To trust someone is almost similar to putting your life in that persons hands. To be able to trust somebody also is a difficult thing to do. Its not like we can simply do, like say, we want to eat.. we'd just go find food and swallow.. but with trust, its never that simple.
There are many things that we have to endure to be able to trust somebody.

In many ways, I can say that to have a U&TB is to know that I am somehow appreciated. But, now, I think a typical U&TB is never the same. I mean, its like U&TB is a determining factor.. somewhat a number that I can rate once in a while. Its like, maybe today, this someone is a perfect 10 score, on the U&TB scale.. but on another day, it can be lower, like maybe just score 3 on that scale.

All I know is, the U&TB factor is relative to how that being feels too.

Sometimes, life consists of too many boxes of chocolates that my mouth gets saturated by its sweetness.

trust....
that is something i have problems dealing with
it is something too subjective
too personal
but, trust be clearly manisfested also

some might say it takes time to trust
it might, it might not


one can trust another with a simple gesture
one can trust another in a matter of minutes
one can also take the lengthiest duration to begin trusting another


why can't people, in general, trust easily?
coz they bruise easily, maybe?
coz they've been hurt once too many, by foolishly trusting the wrong person?
coz they think they are uber-cool not to trust people?


i trust myself that sometimes, i still make the wrong decisions... (it's the clown in me, huh? ;))

i trust my best gurl-friend, though she still doesn't spell my name correctly

i trust you until He tells me otherwise...



just don't stop trusting in Him...



=)



trust it'll be a good day...



blue skies, & everything's nice...

✈Private Jet-word to the wise...;-p

I believe everything happen 4 a reason.

Why can't people trust us?
Why can't we trust people?

Its all reflects us-Check ourself!

ANYWAY

Why doubt now?...when in the past your trust has been your strength.
Why doubt now?...if you believe love will prevail at length,
Why doubt now?...new promises,new dreams will be in vain,
Why doubting still,you cannot see the love that's there,so plain.

Face the future facts,weepers never win,
Make up your mind to trust anew,forget about the past sin.

Forget the score on that scale,
Forget the hurt and that pain,
Remember love,and love again!

May Lord bless us both.Amin.
