Hi friend Rula
nice comparison of the two words love and trust you have made in this one liner...giving an underlying message that both compliment each other
do you think route would be a good replacement for cut?
I have a few alternatives
t r u s t is a stepping stone to l o v e
t r u s t opens the door to l o v e
t r u s t a doorway to l o v e

Mmmmm
All are good suggestions/alternatives raj, but I thought the use of "short cut" is a fresher use of the words, don't know if you agree with me

I do agree Rula but what is
I do agree Rula but what is causing me a kind of a bump is the word "cut"... i don't know if you agree but i believe that though trust is important for it to blossom into love it needs to survive the test of time so i believe it can be a means [route] and not an end in itself....to me short cut equates with haste...know what i mean?

Hello raj
I see now what you mean. I think you need to read the "short cut" as a phrase to give the meaning that you suggested earlier which is "route". It has a totally different view than reading "short" alone and "cut" alone.
Got me now?
