A Random Gathering of Thoughts

Ugh here we go.  Don’ let that fool you I am excited about this.

A couple conversations that I had with friends today got me to thinking a little bit more than I like to about this subject.  Subject being relationships.  You know it’s a broad subject friendship, marriage, colleagues, these are all relationships in one way or another, there is just so much to think about, thus why I don’t like to think about it. Ready?  Here we go.

One person had said that trust is the most important aspect of a relationship no matter what that relationship may be.  Now I don’t necessarily disagree with that, trust is very important to have when letting someone into your life.  But if trust is so important then why do people who think trust is that important involve themselves with people they don’t trust?  Because in fact they do, whether they consciously realize it or not you don’t ever really totally trust someone.  There is always that lingering ‘What if’ that comes about every once and a while.  I guess I would like to say that trust is important but don’t fool yourself into thinking that you will ever completely trust more than one person, that one person being yourself.  That is the only person that really cares about what you care about, the only one who is there for you everyday, and the only one who can truly make you feel better about any and every thing.

Whoa Whoa, I can see how this is making me seem but trust me it’s not like that I promise.  Let me explain.  I am not against relationships, in fact I am very pro socialization and I love relationships, good and bad.  But I feel that people grow up with this unrealistic idea that your significant other is supposed to be able to pull you out of any rut that you or others might get you into, when in fact you have to be the biggest part in making yourself feel better, and if you can do that you will find yourself as one of the happier people you meet.  Don’t make your significant other or the people you surround yourself with feel as though they should be cheering you up, because you should be and actually are the most detrimental person in making that happen.  God I think I forgot about what else I was going to talk about.  Well just wait for the next post, it will come to me I promise.  Until then…
