February 16, 2017, Prescott-
I work for someone who doesn’t entirely trust me,
and is constantly seeming to be under the gun.
I work with children who don’t entirely trust anyone,
and are each very much under siege.
I work in a community which thrives on trusting its own,
yet views the wider world with a flinty eye.
I am a native son of a country which is not sure who to trust,
yet asks the rest of the planet to go with its judgement.
I am a citizen of a planet which is getting more intimate,
and is entering a future which none can really know.
It’s amazing how quickly our tendency to trust has been destroyed. It’s hard to know whom to trust these days! This is interesting insight!

I grew up with serious trust issues of my own, relying on no one but my parents, and a favoured uncle and aunt or two.

Sort of the ancient Chinese curse.

That is right. Where we live and work, no one can trust anyone. I have been betrayed in my life, and that was a lesson not to trust many people. But still I forget that, and I go and trust co-workers.
