Ahahah. I guess I will write something here.
This is my English homework.

A seemingly lively, bustling marketplace – a tottering three-year old with his smiling face upturned, exuding innocence from his very being, stretching out his tiny hands towards a middle-aged woman hurriedly shopping for groceries, tumbles harshly to the ground as he is cruelly pushed away without a thought, as the lady clutches her fancy, branded bag close to her, practically running away from the child; a deceptively peaceful workplace – the young intern who rushes around the building, copying countless files and working endlessly to make ends meet, is tailed and watched constantly by her boss as he waits for her to slip up, to make an error, a mistake; a world that appears to be running smoothly, but is in fact a morass of chaos and despair, filled with people who live in perpetual fear of one another, people who are friends one day and enemies the next, people who do not have hopes or dreams, beliefs or convictions, or perhaps even the will to live – people who exist with the terrible sentiment of “kill or be killed,” and will trample on and destroy others in order to survive — this is the bleak fatality of a world devoid of trust.
Always having faith in people, no matter what their actions are; always taking for granted that their motives are pure and their hearts are filled with kindness; always and unwaveringly forgiving, when they do not, cannot keep their promises; and never, never doubting — trust encompasses all of these, and more.
But most importantly, trust is the firm, unshakable belief in the goodness of all humanity. Trust can only exist alongside this belief; and with trust comes hope – individual aspirations, as well as hope for all of mankind – and the promise of a brighter future.
