"The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship;
it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

I find that some people have such a hard time trusting and letting someone trust them.  Have you found people in life that just bewilder you because they can't trust?  I've been burned by people and have been scarred by it but for some reason I'm always able to go back and trust.  With age, it takes me a bit longer to find that vulnerability again but it always seems to come back.
