Trusting

A child trusts the world. They trust everything and everyone. They are willing to touch a hot item until they realize it’s hot. They are willing to hug strangers until they show themselves to be dangerous. They are willing to jump from the highest bed until they understand the concept of pain…and, some still choose to fly. They are willing to share their last piece of cake. They are willing to talk to anyone. Money is not an issue…most would rather play games with it than spend it and they will empty their pockets in the Salvation Army bucket. It takes a while before they to understand the concept of “can’t be done.” They are fearless. Yes, a child trusts the world.
