Trust is built slowly over time, relinquishing ourselves to the hands of others. With our backs to !he wall creating edges and boundaries, we build a community around us to keep our fragility protected is when we feel safe enough to let our guards down, we can show the little pieces of ourselves that are our most personal To be brave, yet vulnerable, is when we feel safe and not exposed.”
