A bit on TRUST.

Trust is a minefield, especially in the contest of other people. No matter how you try to tip-toe through, the chances of getting across is very slim.

In order to make survival a certainty,(and limp away only being hurt, cause you will be hurt) you don't trust that someone is going to betray you, instead you just trust that you'll be able handle it when they do, and that you'll be able to walk away!

That's a massive key to it, stop worrying about if you can trust people, maybe you CAN'T, only time will tell! That is a pointless waste of your energy and mental fortitude to worry about.
