trust

What is a relationship without trust? Any relationship? In ttwd it's of extra importance with trust, often we have to put trust in someone with our very life and health.
Trust is a must.

I trust Brutus in everything. Does that mean that I never feel hesitation? No, of course it doesn't! But I trust Him deeply -implicitly! Only today He put a rope across my throat -was I scared? No. Did I react to it when He first put it over my neck? Of course I did! I am human, it is our natural reaction. I didn't react adversely to it, not at all -I love it! But I'd be either inhuman or stupid if my mind didn't still for a fraction of a second at it.
Without the trust in place I would certainly have reacted stronger than a fraction of a seconds hesitancy. I expect I would have reacted just like any Vanilla person would do to it; with fear.

Can you let someone tie you up and inflict pain on you if you don't trust the person tying the knots? I wouldn't. You can't really get more helpless than being tied up can you? Anything can be done do you -anything. You are helpless, truly helpless. Hopefully if you trust the person you are with it will only be good things! Of course stuff can happen, unforeseen things, unexpected things, but you shouldn't be going into it with fear.

Trust.
It's what brings us security, safety.
There's nowhere I feel more safe than in Brutus' care, I never fear Him -apprehension towards an activity maybe, but I never fear Him. Trust. Trust is the foundation to every relation we have. Without trust there is no foundation to build on.

There is one thing I trust more than anything -my instincts!
After that; Brutus (and Terror of course!)

How can one be led if the leader don't inspire trust? Could one even lead without trusting it's follower? Like truly lead?

Trust -the foundation of TTWD, not only that, it's the foundation of every relation that will let someone close to you, to see the real you, to touch you.

Trust is a gift. It can just as easily be taken away as it is given -be careful so it don't get snatched away!

Take care of your trust, both that you give and are given, without it you won't get very far.

With love,
