Trust is what separates
the great from all else.
You can give me everything,
but if I don’t trust what is given,
you have given me less than nothing.
“Is this right?
Is this healthy?
Will this last?
Why am I given this?
What am I not seeing?”
Pretty much anything you can give someone
is met with a certain level of distrust.
“Am I now attached to the giver?
Am I now obligated to the giver?
Am I now addicted to the giver?”
“Is this ______ changing me
in a way I don’t want to be changed?”
You don’t have to trust this observation.
What I prefer you to have
is faith in your own intuition.
If you had inward faith,
then outward trust wouldn’t be an issue.

Trust is a complex dance between our inner and outer worlds. It is a bridge that connects us with others and the experiences life brings our way. Trusting requires us to open our hearts and vulnerability, and it is the foundation of authentic connections and relationships.
Faith, on the other hand, is an inner knowing, a deep sense of conviction and belief in something greater than ourselves. It is the unwavering trust we have in our own intuition, in the divine, and in the inherent wisdom of the universe.
When we lack trust, we may question the intentions behind every gesture, doubting the motives and fearing the consequences. We become cautious, hesitant, and guarded, creating barriers that limit our ability to fully embrace the gifts life offers us.
But if we have faith in our own intuition, in the interconnectedness of all things, and in the inherent goodness of life, then trust becomes a natural extension of that inner knowing. We no longer question the intentions behind every action or worry about attachment or obligation, for we trust in the flow of life and our ability to navigate it with grace and wisdom.
Inward faith allows us to release the need for external validation or reassurance, freeing us to embrace each moment with an open heart and a sense of wonder. With faith in our intuition, we can move through life with a deep sense of trust, knowing that everything that comes our way is part of our unfolding journey.
So let us cultivate faith in our inner knowing, in the wisdom of the universe, and in the beauty of life’s mysterious unfolding. As we nurture our inward faith, trust will blossom naturally, and we will find ourselves moving through life with grace, openness, and a deep sense of connection with all that is.
