Trust issues - Act 5
To trust is to have either experience of or belief in, a favourable outcome. It would appear to be integral with the drive for pattern recognition, upon which both our skills and knowledge, are built.
Trust it would seam is foundational to the creation, storage and replaying of the memories that shape our personalities, actions and inter-actions.
Our actions arise from our desires and instincts, with the fight flight response taking over like a master circuit breaker to help keep us in the game.
The quality of our actions will be determined by the patterns we have learned and practiced. Skills can take years to embody, as we practice coordinating movements to a variety of situations.
There is no substitute for this kind of rich sensual experience, which is why specialists are so valuable. Its why we trust them to guide us and provide superior results in areas where we are less experienced.
Let us surmise then, that: uncertainty is a lack of trust, whereas deep pattern understanding would be the opposite.
The more conditions that need to be met, in order for us to feel comfortable, secure and at ease, the more we will need to seek and find trust that those needs will be met.
We turn to experts, particularly in times of scarcity or when we feel threatened, uncertain or insecure.
The word trust originates from Old Norse - Traust, confidence and safety and German Trost - to take comfort.
The greater our desire for something not apparent and the greater our concern over something that is, the more we will be compelled to seek trust. Where can we find trust? In skills born of experience or in beliefs.
Enter Knowledge
The Eighteenth century is known as the Age of Reason, or the Enlightenment, though it likely began much earlier. This was the birth of scientific deduction and the appreciation that knowledge had the power to influence life, liberty and property at the level of the individual.
At last we could gain pattern awareness from a myriad of masters without the years needed to re-learn everything from zero. At last we could trust and invest in comfort....... and invest we did, heavily..
Knowledge is a hairy beast indeed, and will, require copious amounts of coffee before being lured into its dark cave of tantalising secrets.
These thoughts are not my opinions, so I will not get upset if they are questioned or challenged, in fact I welcome curiosity, for that is what I find most interesting, thank you for reading.

Trust is most strong relationship between two person or more . it comes slowly slowly but it lost suddenly at once .
We make our relation very strong when we have trust on someone blindly. But some times its give some much pain when it breaks . anyways loyalty ,trust are most beautiful word created by god.
Thanks for sharing such a nice thought .@freemoceanisnow
What if we place trust in a belief or in something we think we know?
What if we then have more faith in that than in the evidence of our senses?
How would that effect our relationships with others?
Is our common ground not our shared reality?
If one person is looking at reality as it is through their senses
The other is firmly locked on their belief and not interested in reality, can these two people reach agreement?
Can you see that, in this way belief can become a form of violence as it removes the possibility of relationship and the avoidance of conflict?
Why would anyone choose to pay more attention to a belief than to the evidence of their senses?
Is it because of some conditioning they have received?
Is it because they want the benefit that the belief has promised?
Is that belief anchored with fear of missing out or the desire to attain?
How does belief affect the possibility of knowing love?
Does it not set conditions that can only be met by the holder of the belief?
Is this not a control strategy?
Is not control - violence?
Do we use "morality" as an excuse to impose control?
How is that effecting the freedom of the people who are brave enough to pay attention to sensation without the crutch of belief?
These are very challenging questions, not many are honest or brave enough to stay with this line of enquiry to its logical conclusion simply because their is no personal advantage in it, beyond acceptance and acknowledgement of reality - not just the version we are comfortable with, but the one where we die like every other thing that ever lived.
Thank you my friend for reading and joining the dialogue, please feel free to add anything.
What if some one trust by their mind not by their heart??
If heart is always then why it proves wrong many times by fault of other people ??
Many one of questions ,still there is no accurate answer that is the truth of world .
Thanks for ur reply
Please i have humble request to you
Can u please resteem my one post ??
I need ur help friend ...it can be motivate me to work on steemit and keep going .
Trust by mind appears to be agenda based. I suspect we come out of our senses and look to our memory when triggered by desire or discomfort. The more opinions we hold, the more things will trigger discomfort as they will almost never match reality.
Holding knowledge with a playful curiosity allows us to remain sensitive to reality - to our hearts if you like. This kind of knowledge updates readily to fresh evidence. It honours reality.
Holding knowledge or belief that we are personally invested in, will block sensitivity to our heart and true feelings, our "senses" rather than our sensitivities or the wounds our opinions are protecting us from.
This may be the underlying challenge facing our species.
