A consideration of trust does require self examination. Who do I trust, how, when, why? Do I trust the intentions of others? So I trust that politicians, in general, are working in the best interest of their constituents? When things seem to go "wrong," do I trust that everything will be alright? Can I trust that I will persevere in every circumstance?
-- In every case there is a relationship between self and other or self and group that requires clear perceptions and understanding of the people and dynamic. I think that clarity, or lack of, often creates barriers to trust and challenges in dynamic.
But no matter what we are experiencing at any given time, a certain amount of trust is required to continue the momentum in life. Trust that life works, that I can work in life. If I am not trusting others, how does that effect my experience. My viewpoint? My life? What do you think?

Doubt is another good topic. The movie with Meryl Streep and Phillip Seymour Hoffman was terrific. Made me examine at my own doubt.Trusting yourself is the crux I suppose. Some people never fail to disappoint and in those cases, trusting yourself may redeem the experience.

Subject: Mind's Eye trustI've been thinking about something that Don said, about not trusting many people. Is trust important in our relationships? Can we extend trust to everyone, at least a modicum of it? What does it take to trust someone completely?--
