A Life in Words

I don't think trusting someone is as simple as believing that the person you trust will never hurt you or lead you astray. But more that when they do, they wont leave. They wont stop until whatever happened that wasn't favorable is fixed. That no matter what they will always love you and be there when you need them. People suck sometimes... just the nature of the beast. But the real beauty of a person only shines when things have gone dark. And darkness is not always a quick endeavor. We tend to want the pain and hard times to be the quickest moments and if their not we walk away. You can never say your strong until you know how much you can take. A body builder could never be called the strongest man or woman unless they picked up their weights. Loving someone and trusting someone is hard work. Its lonely and dangerous. You are left out in the open more times than not and most of the time the "open" isn't some beautiful safe place. But that moment when the trust pays off, when the love breaks through... the awesomeness cant be measured. A beautiful thing when we reach our limits and those we were holding on for grab us... right when we needed them to. Love, trust, faith... all beautiful things... but beauty isn't without its pain... A smile will always come after a tear... I laugh will always come after a scream. Just depends on if you want it bad or just conveniently.
