“No society has ever survived the loss of character of its citizens”
Trust is necessary for a civil society with a high living standard.
We trust strangers more than we think.
I can drive 60 mph on the right side of the road and trust that all the strangers coming at me a few feet away going 60 mph in the opposite direction aren’t going to cross that yellow line in the road and kill me and my family.
I trust that when I buy food it will not kill me or make my family sick.
I trust when you give me a check it’s good or when you pay with cash that it is not counterfeit.
There is all kinds of trust going on all the time to make it work.
When someone breaks trust they are turning their back on the rest of us and not doing their part. They are messing it up for the rest of us.
Don’t let anyone down. Be trustworthy. Even when nobody is looking.
I’ve learned that trust especially trusting yourself will lead to great things. Faith over fear always, and trust is the main ingredient. Love your words and starting my day with them. Thank you for your positivity you spread in the world, and for being a great role model.
