Not Entitled

“People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.”F. Nietzsche

A lot of times in friendships and relationships, just because we've given someone our complete confidence, we do indeed expect the same in return. Unfortunately, many times, we are not afforded that same level of confidence. People have been through and seen many different things which shape their understanding of how things work and how things can turn out. Though I've seen much, and know that there is much evil in this world, i do have the confidence in my GOD to say that when the time is right, the confidence I have in someone will not be faulted or disappointed but reciprocated. When trust is a two way street, and when the will to live right is always present, we can find that place of comfort and security where two can live openly and freely without the thoughts that can sometimes cloud our minds. Those past memories and experience become just that, the past, and new memories can take over and be our standard.
