The passage emphasizes trusting carefully, learning from mistakes, removing toxicity, and patiently seeking a genuine connection, believing true happiness lies in finding a reciprocating soulmate.

Trust. Do not be afraid to trust. Nobody can go through life all alone. Feel free to rely on someone every once in a while. It is okay to do that. We all have our highs and lows.
Now, I know that the previous paragraph was pretty generalized, but that doesn’t change the fact that those sentences are facts.
Trust issues are a major mental problem these days. It is obviously caused by society, you can’t be born with it. Though, it’s still quite sad how some people have been like this for as long as they can remember.
People can sometimes be unreasonable and bad, for example in a war. But there are also some people that tend to be cruel and evil, with a part of them being like this by choice.
Why would someone decide to be rude and wicked towards somebody else? Most of the time, the answer is personal issues. Those can vary from light family problems to depression. You never know what someone is going through, unless you listen to their story.
People usually say “Everything happens for a reason”, and personally, I agree with that statement. So, just like everything happens for a reason, people do things for a reason.
Aristotle and many after him believe that we are born as “amoral creatures” and that morality is learned.
The truth is, you really don’t know who you can actually trust these days or if you can trust anyone at all. There are individuals who are worth trusting and who will stay by your side. You just need to find that person, also known as “soulmate”.

Get toxicity out of your life, only keep those who care and love you. Get away from toxic and fake people. Well, I know no one is 100% real these days, I’ve said that myself, but those who are as real as they can are worth keeping.
When you finally decide to get toxic people out of your life, maybe you’ll overthink it after doing it, and think: Was this the right choice?
That question can never be answered unless you can time travel and undo your actions, and keep them in your life instead, which would probably be your other choice.
You may question your choices because you might sometimes find yourself missing that person. No one can ever know how things would be if you did not do what you did. Please, promise me you will not try to get a bad person back into your life, just because you miss them now and then. You made that choice for a reason. And that reason was stronger than the reason to keep them close to you, and that is why you did what you did.
Therefore, trust but be careful who you trust. Try to read your fellow man like a book, even if they are not an open one.
Eyes open and mouth sealed until you know who you are talking to. Listen to their words carefully, look at their expressions while talking, and be careful what you say to them. You never know what they might be hiding. A rose is beautiful, but don’t forget it is also covered in thorns. Remember that, and stay cautious of people trying to ruin you.
Socialize to find someone worth your love and trust. Someone to love you and trust you back. It’s okay to be betrayed and hurt. Mistakes are lessons. You are stronger than you think, and your patience will not run out easily, you have a lot of that saved.
Take breaks to refill the patience reserve, and go back out there. People tend to be inhumane, without a sign of empathy. Eventually, you will find your person. You will find your soulmate. You will find the one. Never give up, until you find the one.
It’s okay to distance yourself from the world now and then, but complete loneliness will drain you out sometime, possibly ending your story. That one person is out there, looking for you and waiting for your trust.
So, trust. Everyone has trusted the wrong people, but it’s a lesson learned. Think of mistakes as lessons, and you will not be as disappointed you made them. These are what we call “happy mistakes” or, just like the infamous artist Bob Ross has said, “We don’t make mistakes, just happy little accidents”.
In order to make those happy mistakes, you have to take the risk and trust, and in order to trust the right person, you have to make those happy little accidents. Don’t be afraid to trust.
Trusting seems scary, but in reality, that fear is just an imaginary wall, stopping you from going out there and taking risks. The ones who don't take risks stay still, but those who do take risks move forward and evolve. If you find a way to break that wall down, fight, and win that fear, you will be able to find what you’re looking for, the one. Every single one of us is looking for the one. Some have found that person already, and they are truly happy.
Your soulmate is a need. I mentioned that already, no one can go through life alone, but you can’t just trust anyone. Just the right one. Just... The One.
