Trust

Trust is like a house of cards. Building a house of cards is a tedious undertaking requiring great patience, diligence, and most of all, time. But one wrong move, one err in judgment, and the house will come crashing down, with nothing at all left, not one part of the house standing, leaving you to start all over again.

But with starting over, therein lies the difference, because unlike the house of cards, rebuilding trust is much harder. It would be as though the cards were all damaged, bent, with frayed edges, requiring much more effort to rebuild. Once trust has been betrayed, it becomes exceptionally hard to regain, and in some ways, maybe never fully regained again.

I’m learning a lot about myself lately, and how things like this relate… I’ve done a lot that I regret, hurt people who didn’t deserve hurting, destroyed enough houses of cards to fill a casino… one thing is for sure, anyone who believes I do not have a conscience is absolutely unequivocally wrong…

A conscience can truly eat you alive…

No Milk For You!!

Postponed, we'll try it again later this week... one guy had a sore throat and it was just too damn cold to try it today, like minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit today.

Milk Fever!!!

Well, tomorrow at work, 3 of us, maybe even 4, are going to try something to dispel an urban myth, or legend if you will. We are going to attempt to drink one gallon of milk in one hour (one gallon for one person).

I have heard it can't be done, but growing up on a dairy farm, I find that very hard to believe, I can remember drinking so much milk some days. I plan on taking about 15 Oreo cookies into work with me, and that's going to be my lunch, a gallon of milk, and some cookies.

I'll come back tomorrow night and update so that everyone can have an idea of whether or not I have met success in my endeavor.
