on trust.

for someone who depends a lot on trust, it's one scary thing to imagine a world where i cannot trust anybody.

Winston allowed himself to trust.. O'Brien, Julia and Mr Charrington. And look where he ended up. Little did he know that very people he trusted would turn out to be the enemy.

Interesting though, how Julia and Winston were allowed to continue their rendezvous in the room for some time before being arrested.

Maybe this is an Ingsoc principle. Where you are forced, really really forced, to be alone and independent with no one else to turn to, such that you end up obeying all orders. I guess, when there's no one else to trust, might as well just do what you're asked to, or else you just might be erased from the records. Just like that.

No love. No trust.

A world that runs on.. Power. Control. Fear. One wonders what life is for now. In a world like that, I'd rather not live. There doesn't seem to be a purpose.. no sense of what is good or bad. oh sorry, i mean, ungood. just aimless wandering, with compelled hate and anger.. isn't that sad?
