    Alfred Kelberry: sam :)
    iwandertoo Resident: no intent to be rude
    oO0Oo Resident slips in silently ::waves::
    SophiaSharon Larnia: hi Mickorod
    Aphrodite Macbain: Hi Mick. GTSY
    Alfred Kelberry: please chat away! me and sharon were the ones talking so i was curious :)
    SophiaSharon Larnia: no need to be quiet, no topic really.
    Alfred Kelberry: mick :)
    SophiaSharon Larnia: yes gtsy Mick
    SophiaSharon Larnia: no*
    Aphrodite Macbain: Finished for now
    Aphrodite Macbain: How about the topic of trust?
    SophiaSharon Larnia sees a ruthed Mick
    Alfred Kelberry: oh yes indeed!
    SophiaSharon Larnia: hmm Aph
    Alfred Kelberry: mick in a girl's body :) not often you get to see that :)
    SophiaSharon Larnia now sees a space where Mick was - poof
    Aphrodite Macbain: what does it mean and what is it we need to trust?
    Aphrodite Macbain: I trust that people who are they say they are
    Alfred Kelberry: i'd like more context please, aph :)
    SophiaSharon Larnia: that someone wont cause harm, maybe
    Aphrodite Macbain: Perhaps something to do with its opposite- mistrust
    iwandertoo Resident: nods
    Zon Kwan: hm..trust and ecpectation are different
    Aphrodite Macbain: yes. true Zon
    Aphrodite Macbain: should we say someone is untrustworthy because they don't meet our expectations?
    SophiaSharon Larnia: i wouldnt
    Zon Kwan: i cant trust even though i know someone is lying
    Aphrodite Macbain: what would you be trusting then Zon?
    Zon Kwan: trust is an inner attitude
    Zon Kwan: it doesnt depend on the othere
    Alfred Kelberry: i think we trust no one inherently
    Aphrodite Macbain: You mean it is a state rather than an expecation?
    Zon Kwan: yes
    Zon Kwan: trust is an attitude
    Zon Kwan: towards life
    iwandertoo Resident: I think u can trust others to be exactly as they are
    Aphrodite Macbain: I trust most people but not everyone
    Zon Kwan: if i want you to be honest to me,,its an expectation
    SophiaSharon Larnia: nods at Susan
    oO0Oo Resident: wb Mickorod
    SophiaSharon Larnia: wb Mick, I thin
    iwandertoo Resident: only one has to discover what they are...and often expectation gets in the way
    SophiaSharon Larnia: think
    Aphrodite Macbain: Is it really you Mick or Ruth.? What can I trust?
     
    --BELL--
     
    SophiaSharon Larnia: heh
    Zon Kwan: one can never know what the other will do tomorrow, as he doesnt necessarily know himself, things change, its an expectation
    Zon Kwan: or today
    Aphrodite Macbain: But if one trusts blindly, one could be setting oneself up for disappointment or worse
    iwandertoo Resident: yep
    Aphrodite Macbain: Con men for instance
    Aphrodite Macbain: or con women
    Aphrodite Macbain: :-)
    Alfred Kelberry: generally, people expect us to behave in a consistent manner. unless inconsistency (eccentric personality) is a norm.
    iwandertoo Resident: nods
    Zon Kwan: thats an expectation..ivf you espect you will always be dissapointed
    Aphrodite Macbain: Mmmm. What could be seen as consistent in one culture could be seen as weird in another
    iwandertoo Resident: if one is deceptive, one should not be trusted. that trust needs to be earned back
    Aphrodite Macbain: I agree Susan
    Zon Kwan: one can only trust ones own inner voice
    Aphrodite Macbain: But I usually begin by trusting someone until I am proved wrong
    Alfred Kelberry: aph, weird or not - consistency is what expected :)
    Aphrodite Macbain: Hmmm-I'm not sure if I can trust that inner voice. It's be wrong many times
    Zon Kwan: its all there is
    iwandertoo Resident: sometimes that trust cannot be repaired
    Aphrodite Macbain: True Alfred
    SophiaSharon Larnia: hi Wol
    Aphrodite Macbain: Hi wol- I trust that's you
    Wol Euler: evening all
    SophiaSharon Larnia: gtsy
    Zon Kwan: if i trust someones else voice..im lost
    Wol Euler: this is me
    oO0Oo Resident: Hi Wol
    Alfred Kelberry: take merilyn manson. you expect him to be weird.
    Alfred Kelberry: if he's not weird - it's weird! :)
    iwandertoo Resident: hehe
    Alfred Kelberry: woly girl :)
    iwandertoo Resident: hi wol
    Alfred Kelberry: mmm
    Aphrodite Macbain: 's head spins
    Alfred Kelberry: we talk about trust and expectations, woly
    Wol Euler: ah :)
    Zon Kwan: if i trust another..its my decision..my inner voice says trust him
    Alfred Kelberry: *waits for widsom from woly*
    Wol Euler: what conclusions have you reached?
    Alfred Kelberry: um...
    Zon Kwan: dont trust another
    SophiaSharon Larnia: heh
    Wol Euler: oh boo
    Alfred Kelberry: ha!
    SophiaSharon Larnia: ya boo
    Zon Kwan: rust inlife
    Aphrodite Macbain: One of the characteristics of a good friend is that they are trustowrthy, they dont deeive, they dont lie, they dont betray
    Aphrodite Macbain: *deceive
    Zon Kwan: whre canyou find one
    iwandertoo Resident: they correct their wrongs...
    Aphrodite Macbain: :-) I have quite a few
    SophiaSharon Larnia: i think everyone does those things, whether they know it or not, even to themselves, to some degree
    Zon Kwan: we all lie even to ourselves
    Zon Kwan: how can we expect the other not to
    SophiaSharon Larnia: so i am not a good friend to myself
    Aphrodite Macbain: do we doi it deliberately?
    Zon Kwan: does the other ?
    iwandertoo Resident: its the deliberate harm - the calculated actions
    SophiaSharon Larnia: nods
    Aphrodite Macbain: I am talking about deliberate deception, deliberte lying
    Zon Kwan: thats easy one
    Zon Kwan: its a sin
    Aphrodite Macbain: an easy sin?
    Zon Kwan: but we dont lie that way
    Zon Kwan: usually
    Aphrodite Macbain: we?
    Zon Kwan: nods
    Aphrodite Macbain: I am speaking for myself
    Zon Kwan: im speaking in general
    Alfred Kelberry: decepticons approaching!
    Aphrodite Macbain: :-) glad that's clear
    SophiaSharon Larnia: :)
    Aphrodite Macbain: Is it the norm for politicians to deceive?
    Zon Kwan: yes
    iwandertoo Resident: no
    Aphrodite Macbain: do we expect them to?
    Zon Kwan: yes
    Alfred Kelberry: :)
    Aphrodite Macbain: so we trust politicians to deceive
    iwandertoo Resident: no
    Zon Kwan: but we play the game of not knowing that
    iwandertoo Resident: lowest common denominator speak
    Aphrodite Macbain: so how can we know the difference?
    Zon Kwan: politician wants to be in power
    Aphrodite Macbain: We can chose to be gullible and trusting, or we can chose to question and look more deeply
    Wol Euler: are you "deceived" when you are lied to by somebody whom you expect to lie to you?
    Zon Kwan: sif you speak truth you ownt stay in power
    iwandertoo Resident: no
    Aphrodite Macbain: no, I don't think so Wol
    Aphrodite Macbain: we have become so cynical
    Alfred Kelberry: woly, it's an expected behavior, so it's a norm, woly. we talked about that :)
    Wol Euler: agreed
    Aphrodite Macbain: because people decieve so often it has become the norm
    Wol Euler: forgive me for not being here then
    Alfred Kelberry: *purrs*
    Aphrodite Macbain: where are you Wol?
     
    --BELL--
     
    Aphrodite Macbain wonders whether she should trust a dog that purrs
    Wol Euler: at home, having dinner
    oO0Oo Resident: brb
    Wol Euler: = open-face sandwich and tea
    Aphrodite Macbain: and us!
    SophiaSharon Larnia: laughs (Aph)
    Wol Euler: indeed
    iwandertoo Resident: hehe
    Aphrodite Macbain: Perhaps we add the spice
    Alfred Kelberry: wuff!
    Alfred Kelberry: :)
    SophiaSharon Larnia: chai tea?
    Wol Euler: earl grey
    Alfred Kelberry: *barks deceivingly*
    Wol Euler: milk, no sugar
    SophiaSharon Larnia: yum
    Aphrodite Macbain: what's for desert?
    Alfred Kelberry: this is how bond has it, i think :)
    Wol Euler is reminded of a line from a short story: "Hello", she lied.
