To add, 'trust' by nature needs to be build and hence temporal in nature. Lets define trust by: "The chain is as strong as the strongest link" i totally agree with this philosophy of trust. i myself have been practicing trust and experienced that ‘anything’ that remains vulnerable from ‘attacks’ even after the most stringent of ’security measure’ can be ’secured’ with ‘trust’.

Awake! Awake a sound echoes, awaking the person inside. We answer the echo with a deep sigh & think it's another day! We look ourselves in the mirror, only we notice our eyes pushed deep down inside. We wash our faces to freshen up, yet we wash away thoes young days! We do everything the same as any other day! There is no different in the first & last! We ponder when will our days change when we can call to some & be heard, we only call these days to the person inside. The seasons of the world change without notice, yet we see changes in the mind of the changing man! Want to break free? Listen to your heart, the deep echoes, which bounce of the walls of it. Listen with care, imagine, feel, smell the fragrance, extend ur open hands, hold the echo as a priceless gift. & walk to ur destiny, this time will never come back. History is written..

When you were a baby you trusted your parents to take care of you. And as an adult if you don't trust people it's hard to have any faith in them. Trust is reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety of a person with confidence. The power to know who you can relie on and expect to have a true team capable to keep things within the circle... Trust is never doubting another person for a second.... Trust is knowing that person is not going to betray you. you go on and don't worry about that what person is doing, for you have trust in them...

Trust is a firm belief in the veracity, good faith, and honesty of another party, with respect to a transaction that involves some risk. For example, when you give your credit card to the waiter at a restaurant, you are expressing trust that the waiter will use the credit card to process a transaction that will pay for your meal. You expect that that transaction will be the only one processed and that the waiter won't steal the credit card number for some other purpose. The only time I've ever had my credit card number stolen was in a restaurant, and yet I still blithely hand my credit card over to any waiter who comes along. There is clearly risk, but I take it because I'm convinced that the risk is small. Most of us don't consciously think about the risk of using a credit card to pay for a meal; we evaluate the risk intuitively based on a variety of factors including our previous experience, the way the restaurant looks, and, perhaps most importantly, beliefs about the credit card company indemnifying us beyond a certain point. There's no doubt that trust is linked to risk when we consider who we're willing to trust with what. I may trust a particular person to fix my car, but not to baby-sit my children. Trust is based not just on the entities involved in the transaction, but also on their roles and the particulars of the transaction. What Is Trust?

If you give your word to do something -keep it! Otherwise people will not trust you! Which people do you trust? -These are people who,you know ,are trustworthy(as it relates to your survival.They will not take advantage of knowing the number of your credit card,personal ,or intimate information,that you share with them;your secrets).These are people on which you depend ,as you depend on yourself.

Trust is the same thing as destiny, dont look for what the persons says, look for what he/she is looking for, this will save time and nobody will be hurt! We have to trust in God or nature as what will the world do without the sun. Lets not lie and give life for the person next to us, a few may live and it will grow on and all will not lie. The word "TRUST" will be a part of the body it will fall in like everthing else................. “Walk to your destiny, it is yours if you want it, if you look at tomorrow it will never come and all will fade away, but later in life it will return as blanket of mud, it will hit you your face and wake you up, then you will ask yourself what if I walked a step more would that have made me happy in life, life is this way.

Since we are human, undoubtedly we will do things that undo the level of trust we have built-up. But given the longer haul, its easier to evaluate whether another individual, or an organization, or even a country or culture, has your best interests at heart. Too bad this subject isn't a required one, like english & math! Agree, now add the viewpoint of time. Since we are human, undoubtedly we will do things that undo the level of trust we have built-up.
