This was great Tanja - so many important insights and great quotes. I particularly liked the Einstein one. Trust is hard to gain and easy to lose. Sometimes we say "yes" too easily and this leads to a loss of trust. Proabably the most important way I have seen trust lost is to betray confidences. A colleague said to me many years ago that the best predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour. I reckon that this is good to keep in mind - even if as you say - you give 2nd, 3rd of 4th chances.
You rightly point to the loss of trust in government over the COVID story and this resulted in loss of trust as well in doctors who fell into line with the government. Perhaps it as President Reagan said to Gorbachev - "trust but verify".
Wonderful photo of the cats and a reminder to us of what trust looks like. I think of this each day as I take the little dogs outside - they trust that I will care for them. I suppose pets are a great way for us to learn how to build trust.
