The Trust Exchange
Today as I was talking with some friends, I really realized that creating friendships is like creating a great exchange of trust--where trust is traded generously and eventually builds itself into caring, vulnerability, and love. Some people share their confidence in large and somewhat haphazard chunks while others deal it out in small, bite-size bits. To build friendship you must share of yourself, you must lend out some of your trust. Sometimes we even get burned. But so goes the great trust exchange. The truth is that joining is worth it because when you truly join and exchange some of your trust, you will not feel alone.
