Rhetorical Modes - Trust

1. The trust one has in a person has to grow over time. My dad did not allow me to go driving by myself far distances the first day I had my license. I had not earned his respect yet. In fact the first time I went driving by myself was following my dad home from the car dealership when he picked up his new car. I had to earn my trust before he would allow me to go driving by myself.

2. Although being a trustworthy person is almost never the easy thing to do, and it may seem that caring about yourself more than others is the only way to survive, being a trustworthy friend always has it's advantages if your friend is also trustworthy. For instance if you sacrifice yourself to help your friend out, your friend is more likely to do the same for you in the future.

3. Trust is a confidence that someone will do their job. Trust is knowing that that the person you are relying on will have your back when you need it and that you will have this persons back when he or she needs it. Trust is formed over time. Trust cannot be bought, but only developed and grown.

4. In the beginning of the season no one knows each other, no on loves each other, and no one trusts each other. The beginning of each year is spent in a grueling trek of workouts and two-a-days. During the first day there are a lot of new faces and you have your doubts about all these new teammates. But by the first game we have endured hell together. We have established the trust that is necessary to have a great season.

5. Trust is a word that is used a lot in the English language, but no matter how it is used it always, or nearly always has the same meaning. A football player has to have trust in his teammates in order to be able to do his responsibility to the fullest. This kind of trust, while very similar, is in fact different than the trust a father has in a babysitter that the kid will be safe.

6. You need to have trust in Barrack Obama. Obama is the president of America and the "leader of the free world". While you may not agree with how Obama handles certain things or what some of his beliefs are he is still the president and his intentions are the same as every president before him; to make America a better nation, a more strong nation, and a world power.
