Bugs

Sometimes it is so hard to trust something. At first you put all of your faith into something, only for little insects to attack all your beliefs and eat away at it until its just about gone. Why is that when we are little, everything is so simple. Someone says "Hey this is real" and your reply is "Okay!" You belive in it whole heartedly without once second guessing that person. Then as you get older one little word or one little event can make you second guess EVERYTHING. You wonder what is true, what isn't true. You wonder who do I trust, who is unsafe to trust. Who should I follow, and who should I not follow? Who can I give my love and heart safely to, and who will break it?
I think this infestment of bugs come froms interaction with others. It typically all starts when we go to school. We start to gain a better understanding of things, we learn how to analyze things, and learn that people lie. The biggest factor... lies. We learn that people lie and that you cant always trust everything. Then we analyze to try to figure if there are truths or lies in the events or explanations set before us. We incorporate analysis into everything that we think about. So we start to doubt everything and trust... it becomes something that is hard to come by.
