We often say, I trust you...... Do we mean that!
What is friendship..... and what are the parameters of friendship...... Can true friendship be without any expectation? infact practically speaking No... Never.... Great Indian Economist Chanakya says.... There is no friendship, without expectations..... Even in son-father relation too.....
so What we're going to do...... Do we need to trust Chanakya? hmmm No man..... never trust 100% on anyone.... just think on your set of mind too.... You're the best judge to monitor yourself.
In ancient Greece, Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day one fellow met the great philosopher and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?". "Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test.". "Triple filter?". "That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the triple filter test. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?" "No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and...". "All right," said Socrates. "So you don't know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?" . "No, on the contrary...". "So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?" "No, not really." "Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"
so trust your friend and be positive in any relationship......... Be trust worthy.... earn respect...
