I still make it a point of conversation whenever possible.

I thank you for more than your kind words.

I thank you for being prepared to do your bit , as you have proven.

Looking fwd to what 2025 shall bring!

What in life is 100% trustworthy?

Even ones closest and dearest I am sure many dont trust.

Many NGO 's and NPO's here and globally have enriched their fellow directors and members, while many can be applauded and revered for their work done.

...and that ain't even in the world of fuckery where cloak and dagger is the name of the game.

Orphanages, old age homes....just to name a few.


Thus...what makes it worthy of self investment and not only financial investment ?

It is not a rhetorical question.

Let's hear.

A little something I read and thus shall quote -

"Betrayal is a silent thief - it takes away more than trust; it steals the innocence of believing in people without fear.
It leaves you questioning everything you thought you knew about love, loyalty and connections.
It's not just the act that haunts you, but the thought that you never saw it coming from the person you thought would never hurt you. "

....

Dare one live and continue to be an optimist?

OF COURSE.

Trust is unfortunately lacking in all spaces. Trust in this space, however, and maybe I've just been fortunate, seems to be easier to achieve. Maybe because it's inherently build on trust, as RB always says, honor amongst thieves ... or something like that. But honestly, I've met some of the most beautiful people.

Whether you see betrayal coming ... it's not worth the emotional turmoil. Having been betrayed by family, friends, employers, work colleagues ... I really don't give a shit anymore. I stand by those that stand by me, and walk away from those, who walk away from me. Often you find yourself standing alone, and often you share moments in time with beautiful souls, which is worth far more than any material gain or loss. It's all just part of living and finding usefulness in the short time you have. Pain, suffering, pleasure, joy ... is all just part of life.
