The Concepts of Going Unnoticed

If I told you that George W. Bush was really a genetically enhanced Genome Soldier sent back in time to fuck up American society in the 21st century, would you believe me?



Probably.




I have two words for you today, both coincide with each other, and both are generally needed on a personal p2p basis [p2p being peer-to-peer for all you people that couldn't figure that out].


The first word, is obvious in almost every aspect of any relationship we as human beings have:

Trust.

Trust is the foundation of a lot of things, and once it is breached, regaining and repairing the extent of trust lost can sometimes be unfathomable.

trust [truhst]
–noun
1. reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc., of a person or thing; confidence.


2. the obligation or responsibility imposed on a person in whom confidence or authority is placed: a position of trust.


3. to rely upon or place confidence in someone or something (usually fol. by in or to): to trust in another's honesty; trusting to luck.



Now those three points, from what I gather, are nothing even remotely difficult to understand.
So why is it we insist on breaching trust at such a constant level? For what purpose?

Curiosity?

Curiosity should be deemed the root of all evil; it is curiosity that insists on driving people to get in the way of others' personal business--at the possible cost of inevitably fucking something up.

Curiosity, however, is not the second definition I have for you today.

No, the second definition I have chosen for you, is merely that of the word 'discreet'.


Why, you may ask? Well, it's quite simple really.
When we as people--or, more importantly, as friends--expect things in our lives to remain discreet, we must rely--solely-- on the trust we put in others.



dis‧creet  [di-skrit]
–adjective
1.
judicious in one's conduct or speech, esp. with regard to respecting privacy or maintaining silence about something of a delicate nature; prudent; circumspect.





end.
