How Much Do You Trust?



Trust is a very important factor in all relationships: marital, family, friendship, or business. When trust is broken, the relationship is strained or ended. A lack of trust leads to suspicion. Suspicion leads to anger. Anger causes enmity and enmity can lead to separation.


A female telephone operator received a phone call one day. She answered, "Public Utilities Board."  There was silence.  She repeated, "PUB." There was still no answer.  When she was about to cut off the line, she heard a lady's voice.  "Oh, so this is PUB. Sorry I got the number from my husband's pocket but I do not know whose number it is.


Without mutual trust, just imagine what will happen to the couple if the telephone operator answered with just 'hello' instead of 'PUB'.
