A bitter lesson i learned very late in life. I used to be that kind of person who used to easily trust others. But it backfiring me until I learned the lesson. May be i grown up in a society that were more selfish and mean. Trusting them and getting hurt is obvious outcome. But now, after all the bad experience I started trust on myself only.
I think overall society is more selfish and mean, and since there is less community, trust is eroding also, because less people can be trusted to do what is best for the community. People can hide behind a screen, no matter what harm they do.
