Trust (with people) ...

For those who trust, no explanation is necessary.
For those who do not trust, no explanation is possible.

Trust, but expect the unexpected: Having trust on people should not be punished. If, while building a house, a carpenter strikes a nail, it proved faulty by bending. Does the carpenter lose faith in all nails and stop building his house?

Deal with evil through strength. But affirm the good in man through trust. In this way, we are prepared for evil but we are encouraging good. And is good our great reward for trusting? In striving for an ideal, we do not seek rewards. Yet trust does sometimes bring with it a great reward. Even greater than good ...... that is love.
