{This is a Feel Good Post}
Without trust, no foundation can be built. Ask your experience. When you don’t trust, what progress can arise?
When I know someone does not have my best interest, and proves it over and over, I know it is time for me to drop the antics and say goodbye. Simple as that.
Sure, sometimes I am not able to say goodbye. I have mouths to feed and empires to build, and sometimes certain relationships are important. I get it. But, when it comes to living in authenticity, living in our most evolved expression of who are meant to be, these relationships either have to be fixed, or forgotten & left.
The more intimate the relationship, the more important the trust.
Trust your c0-worker but not your boyfriend or spouse. Not good.
I happen to have a great partner in life. Perfect? Hell no. We have gone through ups and downs, and somehow with a sense of humor weather it all. But there were times when I didn’t trust him. Don’t get me wrong, this man adores me, in not that kind of trust issue. Lack of trust sometimes came for me in the form of not understanding his style of living and communicating, and making assumptions about what happened or did not happen.
Trust is a two way street, I found.
Nothing made me test my trust with my man more than rock climbing. Somehow we land in the rock climbing gym for our wedding anniversaries, and each time, we muscle through our trust issues.
Sometimes, I cry. Sometimes he laughs and then I get mad. Sometimes he hears me, and sometimes I get to feel like muscle woman repelling him down. The dance of trust is a delicate embrace of trully allowing myself to be intimate. Yes, even after 15 years, or at least I think it has been that long. Heck, I barely know my own age, let alone the age of this relationship.
My message for the week: know who you trust. And whom you do not, well, time to either fix it or leave it.
Blessings,
Asha
