Trust: A Lesson from a Blind Date

Good day, dear reader. Today, I’d like to share a tale from my younger years, a story that taught me a valuable lesson about trust. It’s a tale of a blind date, a tale of uncertainty, and a tale of learning to trust not only others but also myself. So, grab a cup of tea, settle in, and let’s embark on this journey together.

The Blind Date

It was the summer of ’65, and I was a young man full of vim and vigor. My friend, let’s call him Jack, set me up on a blind date. I was hesitant, but Jack assured me that I would have a good time. He said, “Trust me, Kev“. And so, I did.

The Lesson

As the day of the date approached, I was filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension. I had no idea who I was meeting, what she looked like, or what we would talk about. But I remembered Jack’s words, and I decided to trust him.

The date turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. Not because it led to a romantic relationship (it didn’t), but because it taught me the importance of trust. I learned to trust my friend’s judgment, to trust in the goodness of strangers, and most importantly, to trust in my ability to handle new and uncertain situations.

Trust in Life

Life, dear reader, is much like a blind date. It’s full of uncertainties and surprises. But if we learn to trust – trust in others, trust in ourselves, and trust in the journey – we can navigate through life’s ups and downs with grace and courage.

So, my advice to you is this: Trust. Trust in the goodness of people. Trust in your abilities. Trust in the journey. And remember, every experience, good or bad, is a lesson learned.

Until next time, dear reader. Trust in your journey, and remember, life is a grand adventure.

Yours in wisdom,

Kev
