Learning to trust people again

This a long road to success to trust people.
You may feel this way because you ain't trustworthy yourself.
You may put the excuse that this is because you have been hurt in the past.
well, it was in the past, you are not a victim anymore.
Yet, I know the pain is still there.
Can you abandon it?
Can you transform it?
Give it a new meaning?
You may also know that with people come chaos and you ain't ready to deal with this.
You may not trust yourself in managing what is coming your way as you start interacting with people.
well, the future is unknown, you can only live in the present
yet, I feel your anxiety.
Can you let it go?
Can you shift it?

A plan
this is it. be clear why you interact with people for. be clear on your intention. keep coming back to it when you get lost. Those who align to your inspirations are the people to trust

I identify as mixed race. I was privileged to be raised in a household where your creativity and ingenuity was more prized than any other type of achievement (i.e. education, getting married or making money). The experience made me appreciate even more what was given to me. The experience also forced me to be very selective in what I was allowed to say depending on the people I was with.
