Trust Others Before They Trust You.

Greetings to you this Monday Morning.

One day the Teacher says he has an exercise for us to try. We are to stand, facing away from our classmates, and fall backwards, relying on another student to catch us. Most of us are uncomfortable with this, and we cannot let go for more than a few inches before stopping ourselves. We laugh in embarrassment.

Finally, one student, a thin, quiet, dark-haired girl wears a bulky, white fisherman sweater, crosses her arms over her chest, closes her eyes, leans back, and does not flinch.

For a moment, everyone thought she will thump on the floor. At the last instant, her assigned partner grabs her head and shoulders and yanks her up harshly.

“Whoa!” several students Yelled & Clap.

The teacher finally smiles. “You see”, he says to the girl, “you closed your eyes, That was the difference.

Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them too – even when you’re in the dark. Even when you’re falling, make it a great week ahead!!!
