How We Value Trust As Sacred
we trust that our loved ones have our best interest at heart. we trust the clerk on the phone with our social security number. we trust that our lover has good intentions. we trust that we won’t come to work to a pink slip. we trust that our spouse will be faithful. when rock climbing we trust that the rope is secure and will not give. each day we put our trust in so many people and things and amazingly enough we do so with considerable ease. we’re pretty trusting beings. ever stopped to ponder why????

Trust In The Happiness Stock Exchange
so this is sort of a continuation of my last post…. i notice that so many people seek to find their happiness and fulfillment in so many external sources such as pets, cars, houses, jewelry (though i admit a few karats of gemstones will always bring a smile to my face! LOL), significant others, friends, family, jobs, awards, titles, status, spirituality, yoga, vegetarianism, 6-pack abs (oooohhh but i do like those myself LOL), and the list could truly go on forever.
