Deciding not to decide.

The psyche is a funny thing. Our experiences and sometimes just our own personal disposition in a given moment often color our interpretation of others and what their true intentions may be. Since i am still working on seeing the world with pure equanimity and a healthy dose of detachment, i just can't let myself believe my own thoughts. But if I am not to believe my own thoughts, who or what am I to believe? Well, how about nothing?
There is such a thing as leaving questions unanswered, as letting the mystery of who people are and what all their motivations/intentions are sit with us until the truth arises as a conclusive fact that we can work with. I'd rather be duped than sacrifice my sense of trust, and also objectivity, to what can only be assumptions and judgments. There really is usually nothing to lose when you never give of yourself anything that you don't have in you to give freely. I only give everything out of Love, or at least try to. So i feel like it was never a mistake.
And if the danger of being duped has consequences i am not willing or able to deal with, then i can remain cautious in my actions/reactions simply by taking into account that the truth is unknown and yet still not let my emotions or impatience decide what the truth is until it is actually clear and conclusive. Besides i really trust Life and don't think anything is by accident, so if i act from a true place, if i am as one with the flow of life, or with the Tao, as they say, i have nothing to worry about because what i put out will come back to me regardless of whether it comes back directly or as it often does, indirectly.
