Healthy relationships are all about trust. Anthropologists would argue that what urged the first men to form communities was the need to protect themselves against outside dangers and secure the collective resources they needed to survive. Trust would have been, therefore, central to those primal communities and the lack of it would have produced disintegration.

The relationships we have been building over the last days (among ourselves and with the children or Eagle’s Nest) have necessitated the cohesive bond of trust for them to edifying and healthy. To what extent have we succeeded in that is not for me to determine or to judge at this point in time.

Regrettably, unless there is a mature and continuous effort to take care of those relationships we have built in order to further their development, the process is cut short rather abruptly.

Saint-Exupéry said through one of his characters (the Fox in Le Petit Prince), that one becomes forever responsible for the bonds we have built. It is therefore now up to us to decide what are we going to do when we part ways.
