trust, likes, influence, and control.

amoung many, if not all, things in existence (apparent to our abstract mental workings) the words listed previous are not under our direct influence and certainly(based on my observations and experiments) not under our direct control. i believe that we have a certain amount of influence over our life (both direct and the resultant indirect influences) and that range of influence is what we know as action or the results of our actions or behaviour. this range is what we see as what we “control.” but this range is only a small portion of all that influences the attributes of our lives and ultimately of known existence. we do not “pick” a favourite, we can recognize what, on average, we are attracted to or continue to come back to. the resultant conclusion can be considered what a “favourite” is. likewise we do not assign trust. we cannot decide what we trust or not. we can, however, decide to gamble that what we perceive or want to perceive will be true. thus we can “assign” a false label (“trust”) to our gamble. when we say “i trust you” or “trust me” the common idea represented is that true trust will be “given,” but ultimately what is represented is a gamble.
again, this is not to say that we have no influence on our lives, that predestined fates have already been laid for us and we are simply “going through the motions,” we can take responsibility for and employ direct action/behaviour. it is simply the awareness that what we are acting on has been influenced by more than just our own thoughts or “controls,” and to a higher degree than we are usually aware of or would like to admit or embrace(accept).
