Can you actually trust a fellow human being with your life? A lot of people trust their friends and family even though they can go and turn their back on them at any moment. We see these instances on the news and even in our daily life, so how can you truly leave yourself vulnerable to another human being? Some people believe that no one from their own particular race would ever hurt them even though as I stated earlier that it is shown on television that you see hispanics against hispanics, whites against whites, blacks against blacks, and etc. I'm not asking this question because I feel that I don't trust others I'm asking this to see if we as a people, as a society ever truly trust our neighbors, boss, friends, family, pretty much others. Thank you.

This is up to you, no one can ever say who is to be trusted, and who is not. This is the factor of life, to discover and learn from your mistakes. If you choose not to trust anyone, you will die alone, but if you choose to trust, you risk being hurt and leave yourself vulnerable. No one can tell you to trust someone, or if someone is trustworthy, this is up to you to decide.
Personally, I trust two people in my life. Krystin, my love, and myself. The risks are there, anyone can betray you at anytime. That is what trust is, though. Trust the the feeling of security if you are to leave yourself vulnerable to said trustworthy person. You leave yourself in their hands, and you trust they'll not hurt you. To discover who these people are is up to you, you can't ask anyone to do that for you.

There are levels of trust. I trust my close friends and family with my welfare. I trust my boss to treat me fairly and help create a safe work environment. These trusts are based on the fact that up to this point they have done just that.
Now to assume everyone can be trusted because of skin color, or because they live in the same area as you, is to assume that all people are looking out for the welfare of others, and not trying to advance themselves. It also assumes that we have the same belief system. I can be trusted to help someone in need, if I know they are in need and can help them without hindering my progression through life. Other people I have met can be trusted to try to find if people are in need and help them even if it makes there life a little difficult. Others yet will only help those they know very well and do so grudgingly.

There are people in my life who I would absolutely trust regardless of the situation. Being vulnerable is part of having a deep relationship - we have to open ourselves up to others in order to establish the type of relationships which lead to trust. I can't say that I would ever trust a "category" of people (like a race or gender or profession). It has to be a "case by case" basis and I rely heavily on my gut. And the number of people I trust unconditionally is small. But I do trust them, so my answer to your question is YES.

Now this is turning out to be, i have been taking classes only for the reason of making some friends because i became ill of being on my own up north right here. we are a militia kin and this became our first pass, and It became lots harder to get reestablished in a sparkling state than i concept it must be. human beings are all round different up right here. although this is okay, i have made some progression in the chum branch at present. I did lose my dad some years in the past and that became demanding as well. My husband misplaced both one in all his father and mom very last 365 days. So we probable suffered some significant shrinkage very last 365 days i'd say.

We have to understand that everyone is a conditioned soul so to put complete trust in someone is to set ones self up for disappointment. That does not mean we should not have some trust and give the person opportunity to prove their trust. But know they are human and can ere. Only God (Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu etc.) and His pure representative can be trusted fully.

I think we have to trust our family otherwise they will never trust us back. Friends are gray area. That's why you have to be careful who you call a friend. But, if you truly believe someone is a friend, you should trust them. Race has nothing to do with trust.
