Word

One of the most important things to me in a person, is their ability to keep their word. If you tell me we're going to hang out, I take you seriously. If you tell me you'll do the assignment, I take you seriously. If you tell me you'll call, I take you seriously.

I think of all the times I've ever been hurt or disappointed, it's usually because someone went back on their word. I suppose this stems from the importance I place on trust. And when people go back against their word, I have problems trusting them.

I do want to trust people. But sometimes people make it hard for them to be trusted.
