Trust (written by Michael Jackson)

Trust(written by Michael Jackson)
As I was feeding squirrels in the park, I noticed a small one that didnt seem to trust me. While the others came close enough to eat out of my hand, he kept his distance. I threw a peanut his way. He edged up, grabbed it nervously, and ran off. Next time he must have felt less afraid, because he came a little closer. The safer he felt, the more he trusted me. Finally he sat right at my feet, as bold as any squirrel clamoring for the next peanut.
Trust is like that — it always seems to come down to trusting in yourself. Others cant overcome fear for you; you have to do it on your own. Its hard, because fear and doubt hold on tight. We are afraid of being rejected, of being hurt once more. So we keep a safe distance. We think separating ourselves from others will protect us, but that doesnt work, either. It leaves us feeling alone and unloved.
Trusting yourself begins by recognizing that its okay to be afraid. Having fear is not the problem, because everyone feels anxious and insecure sometimes. The problem is not being honest enough to admit your fear. Whenever I accept my own doubt and insecurity, Im more open to other people. The deeper I go into myself, the stronger I become, because I realize that my real self is much bigger than any fear.
In accepting yourself completely, trust becomes complete. There is no longer any separation between people, because there is no longer any separation inside. In the space where fear used to live, love is allowed to grow.

Michael, wherever you may be tonight, i trust that you will keep my son, mom, and dad in your heart and that your angel wings will watch over them in their time of need just as theirs is watching over you. I'll keep praying for you all and i trust that you'll be there just as i will always be here for you and them. with love always. afrend4mjinky

Michael was a gentle, compassionate man. His music was a vehicle to spread love, unity and happiness. Only people who fear something they don't understand or covet something they do not have create and spread lies. The haters broke Michael, and still he smiled. Still, he showed his love. Read his books. I have them in pdf file. I'll send them to you. I'll need your personal email. Write to me. RIP, Michael. The globe is mourning you.
