Trust
"To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved."

Trust to me, means being someone that somebody can rely on for whatever it is they need. It isn't just a matter of keeping a secret, but entrusting someone with something important and knowing that it can get done. Trust is synonymous to friendship to me.
Trust is another one of my most important values because without it, anybody's credibility as a friend and a colleague is dampened immediately. I have had occasions where I would entrust a task to get done by my friend saying that he would do it, only to not get around to it, and my perception of him changed a lot.
It is a building block to establishing relationships with people that you will love for the rest of your life. Without trust, relationships never have a complete sense of security, and that alone will lead to many failed relationships.

Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity
One of the best decisions I have made since coming to college is joining a fraternity. They are a huge social network of brothers who I can trust unwaveringly, even if I do not interact with someone in it that much. The bonds that I have made with brothers in the fraternity, from road tripping down to Lake Shasta, to skiing at Sun River, Oregon, are memories that I will never forget.
Friendship and trust are intertwined together and they are nothing without the other. I know that my future will be bright simply because I have made so many memorable experiences with all of these gentlemen, and I know that they will support me no matter where life takes me.
