Trust


Many of us today did  trust in other people blindly  so much that we never thought they will do us any wrong or betray us, but they did.

They took advantage of our naivety and our complete believe in them to control and manipulate us into getting what they want from us, after that,  they left us alone in the cold. All because we trusted them.We were naive to trust in the wrong people. Period!

On the other hand, we were the ones people trusted so much and yet we let them down and disappointed them.
To their suprise, they may have been expecting the disappointment and the betrayal to come from a complete stranger they don't know, but it came from us.

We all at one point in our lives have been victims and offenders in this game of trust.

It is better to tell a bitter truth to a person you love so he can cope in difficult situation in life and be self reliant and independent in all things than to tell a sweet lie that will cause someone to depend on you or trust you completely because you gave an exaggerated assurance that you can help or you can be trusted.
In simple words, let your Yes be a Yes and your No be a No.
That way you will be seen to be more trustworthy, reliable and transparent in all your affairs.
Often times, we take our words and promises lightly but if only we knew, they have the tendancy to make or break relationships. To you, who easily trust and place confidence in people because they seem to be very nice, friendly and helpful towards you, becareful!

People can be mean and manipulative sometimes especially if they are pushed against a wall with no options. They might give you up to save themselves at one point if the need arises. As humans, we all have self instincts, so don't be so naive to put your trust in people too much else you will be disappointed when you least expect.
Appearances of people can be deceptive.

To guard your heart and strengthen your mind, learn to be objective in your thinking and in assessing people. Be truthful and honest with everyone. And put on the mindset of a devil's advocate all the time;
The same people who are cheering me today, will be the same people to ridicule me if I am to fail or fall. This should be your backup.
Life isn't fair as we all have come to know by now.
Don't put your trust in anybody just anyhow.
We all have our heavy burdens in life to carry.
I hope this message helps people dealing with trust issues and dealing with the pains of a broken heart. I pray you can find closure in these words whoever you are.

The Paradox of Our Times

*THE PARADOX OF OUR TIMES* Is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers Wider freeways and roads but smaller viewpoints We spend more, but we have less. We have bigger houses, but smaller families More conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees, but less sense More knowledge, but less judgement More experts, but more problems More medicines, but less healthy lives We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and hate too often We have learnt how to make a living, but not how to make a life. We have added years to life, but not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back But have trouble crossing the street to meet or greet the new neighbour. We have conquered outer space, but not our inner hearts We've cleaned up the air in our environment  but destroyed our souls. We claim to love all people but quick to show our prejudice We've higher incomes, but lower morals. We'v...

Support Small Business Owner Friends And Family To Grow

To all my self-employed, small business owner friends and family,  this article is dedicated to us!!!! Rihanna releases a lip gloss, people buy it.  Michael Jordan puts out new trainers in stores, people flock to these stores to buy them instantly. Dr. Dre  has new headphones, people buy it. Oprah Winfrey, the richest black woman in the world introduces a new weight loss and diet control program, people jump on board and flow with it. Beyoncé has a new concert, people queue in line to go spend £250 on a ticket just to watch her performance. A friend or family member of ours starts a business, and soon we become weary.  We say things like "Not sure this is going to work"  "This business you are starting is not going to go anywhere, I'll give you only 6 months, it will collapse to the ground"  " this your product is too expensive, you will be out of business in no time if you don't reduce your prices" Those of you, putting out negative comments...

USA And The Western World is Against Polygamy.. Our Ghana Law is Against LGBT Rights. Will They Allow To Set Up a Polygamy Office In Their Country??

On June 26 2015, the US supreme court struck down all state laws banning same - sex marriages and legalised in all the fifty states across America. I remember that day, pretty well watching CNN seeing then host taking the live feed Anderson Cooper in a jubilant mood. Pictures from the supreme court also painted the same picture. Men kissing men passionately, and women kissing women passionately and locking tongues as well. All this outside the US supreme court for the whole country and the whole world to see that the United States of America, the greatest free country on earth is now fully endorsing gay marriage and approving LGBT rights. The gay pride parade was insane, trust me. A few months later, some European Union countries also joined in and legalised it unanimously. I could recall on that evening I called up one of my Brazilian friends, a woman who had always been a strong advocate and a strong supporter of LGBT rights to pick her mind on what had just happened in the US. ...
