Honesty, trust, and loyalty

We learned so many things about this life. We learned how to trust ourselves and others, and before we can trust others we have to believe in ourselves. Sometimes it is difficult to trust others if we don't know the person very well. Trust is like building a bridge whether it is with someone we love, business associate, customers etc. In a relationship, it is hard to accept someone if we don't trust him/her. Trust help us learn others' self-value, perspective, believe, and desire. Trust is something that we need to earn or to build. Earning a trust is like building a house, we need the foundation/the base to make this building strong and last forever. Trust starts with honesty and integrity. In order for people to accept us for who we are we have to be honest to ourselves and to them. To be honest about anything sometime is not possible, but if we want to build a good relationship we have to try to be open. Being an honest person will help us to be a better person and live a better life. There is no burden upon our shoulder whatsoever; we feel free. It plays an important role in our personal gain or achievement. honesty and trust are the road to loyalty. Loyalty means that we believe in others, appreciate their honesty , and maintain integrity. To be loyal is to be able to keep their words and ours in a good shape. This means that we have to trust others as they will trust us. In a simple way, loyalty means that we kept our words and promises so that we don't hurt other people feeling or reputation.

As the time goes by, we saw many changes in our life, environment, and society. Sometimes we feel that there is no common believe about honesty, trust, and loyalty to one another. Lies are more common and become part of our society. Lie is wrong still just because most people do it doesn't make it right. We cannot start something based on lie because sooner or later it will fall apart. Until it is too late and we don't have any ways to fix it. Sometime we don't realize what we have until that thing is gone. We cannot turn back time and fix the past, but certainly we can build the future. Most of the time, being an honest person, trusted by other, and maintain loyal make our day easier. Like the golden rule says "do unto other as they will do unto you". Be honest if you want them to be honest with you; trust them if you want them to trust you; and be loyal to them if you want them to be loyal to you.
