Smiling Faces



I never think people will do me wrong and then, being people, they do me wrong.  In a sentence, I am easily played because I am so niaive.  I am past middle age and yet I trust people to be honest and true instead of scheming and lying.  I wish my husband was by my side all the time.  He sees their base nature and doesn't give them a chance.  As it is,  I walk through this world alone, counting on my OWN judgement and once again I am hurt by people being people.  I guess it would be easier to take or to comprehend if I wasn't so earnest, so true.  Maybe if I were like them I would understand the games people play.  I am not and I don't, so I cry once again, "How could they do that, I thought I could trust them."

The Temptations said it best:  Smiling faces leave no traces of the evil that lurks within.  Can you dig it?
