Loyalty and Betrayal

Loyalty.
When you will never let someone down, when you will always be faithful.
Trust me, that is harder than you would think.
Betrayal.
When you easily back-stab someone.
Be honest, which is easier? Jumping off a cliff or jumping off a diving board?
Everyone wants to be loyal though, and yet they usually end up breaking that promise. That promise to always be loyal, no matter where the string falls.
Loyalty doesn't come naturally however, you need trust, trust and compassion, like you need the sun and water to give organisms life. However when in the right temperatures that seed will grow into a beautiful flower, and once you find your trust and compassion nothing can make that bond break.
It would almost be as strong as love.
Loyalty could very well transform into love like that flower into a ripe, delicious fruit. You just need the right ingredients.
