I tend to trust actions more then words. If a person frequently follows through w/ what they say they were going to do I tend to trust them more, but not completely. No one can really be completely trusted, in fact you cannot even trust yourself. This is because everyone has there own desires that might influence them to break their word. In regards to not being able to trust yourself, everyone's brain is hard wired to preceive infomation by filling in missing peices of information. Just read the following:

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorantt.

See you brain lied to you in order to make sense of that. If you actually tried to pronounce that it would just be jibberish.

Yeah. No offense, but to trust someone just because of their color is foolish.

then why is blue the color of trust, when blue people aren't trustworthy?[/quote]

Because we associate cuteness with innocence and trust them when they can infact be little backstabbers?

Why would you trust a lion anyway? You know it will kill you if it felt like it.

But are they that naive? I shall not trust things that weigh more and normally snack on me.

Your right...maybe they are just acting naive to throw us off so when the lion attacks we'll be the ones eaten. Ok I got a new rule to live by "When me and a naive person are in front of a lion don't trust the naive person."

Note that I specified "lion cub".

And yes, some people are that naive.

Just read the following:

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorantt.

See you brain lied to you in order to make sense of that. If you actually tried to pronounce that it would just be jibberish.

Oh wow, that's neat. I could actually read it in a fast pace.

You've never seen that before, Dr. Love? I suppose it really is neat, even if it does suggest we shouldn't trust our brains.

Yes, it proves that ghosts and the like are just tricks of the mind! 😮
