Trust is the foundational basis of all relationships long and deep. Is there anyone in this world whom you really trust? I imagine the list is short. Who could possibly make the cut? I guess it could be your spouse, one or both of your parents, a child, a longtime close friend, a minister, your dog.
These are some people (and maybe a creature) with whom you may have established a trusting relationship. Of course, there are different levels of trust. Trusting someone to speak words of encouragement or bail you out when you find yourself in a crisis or facing dire circumstances is completely different from asking someone if there’s catsup on your chin. You feel completely at ease asking a perfect stranger on a busy city street what time it is and proceeding forth with your schedule trusting the answer they give is accurate. But, you might think twice about asking that same person to keep an eye on your double-parked car with it running while you run into the dry cleaner to drop off your laundry.
