Trust, Honesty, Generosity, and Safety
Well, where is trust and where does trust go?////
Is there a relationship between trust and generosity?
And finally what about safety?
Well, we can pull this apart many different ways, but
to begin with I will assert that this is the fabric of
both economy and social order. If there is no trust there
is no economy.
So the first question, where does trust go? I mentioned this
before in relationship to justice on this blog 21 Oh Man.
In the case of justice the answer was ,,,, nowhere. Justice
does not move, but we are capable of obscuring it. And
likewise I hold that trust is also one of those things that
may become obscured, and so I believe this goes back
to generosity. How we interact with each other and
what kinds of things we mutually expect.
Which get's back to safety. If there is little trust,
or the perception of little trust, meaning the fabric
of society is beginning to shred, people will become
increasingly fearful. That will cause them to behave
in particular ways. But fear has never been a good
way to deal with reality, to understand reality, or to
connect with reality in substantial ways. And that
of course brings us right back to " economy ".
