Trust First. The rest will follow. It is because of few good people that the world is still a good place.

I think you have learned the best lesson in life. Trust is the best thing you could share with anyone. Once its lost, even friendship gets lost.

Trust

I bought a violin from a man who lives a long distance away. I had contacted him by phone after being given information about him by my violin teacher. The violin seller asked for my name and address, and we agreed that he would send me the violin, I would send him my old one, and after he had evaluated my old violin, he would bill me less the trade in. I was the proud owner of a violin worth probably $1000 for two weeks before I received his bill. Here is a man who truly believes in others. I was honored to be the recipient of his trust and have resolved to do the same, every day.
