The Struggle With Trust
11/14/13
Trust is like getting water in the Sahara desert, its hard to get. Many people feel that in order to gain trust it takes a series of time. I, unlike other people think that you should give them the benefit of the doubt and trust. I think this because no one has done anything not to deserve your trust so why not give it to them? When I first moved to this school I gave these two girls my trust to be a friend to me. They soon started to turn on me and deserted my trust. This was a situation where you need to learn on your own if a person is able to be trusted or not. Now in this case they shouldn't be trusted but you have to find these things out first.
Even though I feel you should give the benefit of the doubt, you should still be skeptical about things. There are benefits and downsides of trusting as well.

But in all seriousness I feel like people should give others a chance to be trusted. People are not as mad when their trust is broken.

Faville Hamlet’s Demise It is believed that everything happens for a reason. People change so that things can be learned to let go, things go wrong so that they can be appreciated when they go right, lies are believed so eventually people learn to trust no one but themselves. Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. In the book, Hamlet, by William Shakespeare he recognizes that people change, and often, they become the person they said they’d never be. Shakespeare illustrates…

hear them speak it. With hearing them struggle Rodriguez himself had grown nervous and his trust, protection and power that he saw in his parents would be weaken. I believe this made it harder for Rodriguez to become more comfortable with speaking English because as a young child you often look up to your parents a lot and seeing them struggle isn’t what you want to see. So hearing his parents struggle with it made him believe that he would probably struggle with it as well. Then when his parents…
