I can't read wickedsurrender's posts so I don't know what she wrote about but I think I am with you. Or then you can correct me if you think I got it totally wrong.

I can be somewhat naive and perhaps too trusting. However, I believe every person deserves me not to judge them based on experiences I have had with others. But in the end I am responsible for my own journey so if I get let down I will continue regardless - with or without that person or car.

I think it is an excellent analogy

Yes. I too wish for the proper reaction when inserting things into a slot, such as a key into a keyhole or... Wink. Wink.

Well, yes.
I think Self-trust is more important than trusting some other.
I prefer to carry my own burden of trust, to make it easy to fight the urge to say "but I trusted you!"

“The person you need to trust first is yourself. No one can be as consistently supportive of you as you can learn to be.

Being kind to yourself increases self-confidence and lessens your need for approval. Loving and caring for yourself not only increases self-trust, it also deepens your connection with others.”

“Everyone in your life has the potential of betraying you,” said Cynthia Wall, LCSW, a psychotherapist in private practice in northern California.

They may leave. They may pass away. They may make a rude comment. They may cheat. They may lie. They may disappoint you in many different ways.

“We can’t count on anybody 100 percent.” This doesn’t mean we should isolate ourselves or harden our hearts. Too often, you have more sympathy and acceptance for a stranger than you might have for yourself.

But it does stress the importance of being able to trust the one person we know we can count on: ourselves.

Self-trust means that you can take care of your needs and safety, avoid people who undermine your self-trust, and speak kindly to and keep promises to yourself, Wall said. It means you trust yourself to survive situations, and practice kindness rather than perfection. It means you refuse to give up on yourself, she said.

Whereas I've only tried thinking/seeing this way since -- 2012 -- so far, it works in a perfect way...for me.

Suppose I said that, trusting others over Self can kill you?

Resurrection is hard work....

I appreciate you - and thank you for the nourishment of my Mind.
