trust

we are all born as skeptics. as to how much skepticism we have in us, it varies. some of us tend to trust strangers better than others. i've learnt to be less of a skeptic, not that being skeptical isn't good, but at times, it can be damaging.

true, there are unscrupulous people out there out to trick you of your money. but some people are out there, just doing your job, probably needing your help in return. sometimes, we have to lower our heads, swallow our pride and trust these people.

trust isn't an easy thing, especially for those people who got their fingers burnt before. but that doesn't stop you from trusting.

sometimes a little risk in our lives is a good thing. risks let us step outside of our comfort zone to explore ourselves deep within. being skeptical is being overly risk adverse. asking dumb questions like "will i get paid doing this?" or "will he cheat me out of my money?" or maybe "what do i get out of this?".

i don't know. honestly, i'm a risk loving person, because i can assess risk very quickly. but for those who are afraid and continues to be skeptics in their own world, please buck up, and don't fuck yourselves up.
