Trust
New Orleans, 2009

Picture

I have an address for the crayfish boil
But with my gps in my car, I am lost

I walk into the luxury stationary shop
With its $150 notebooks and thick paper
“Can you direct me to…” I ask the shop owner
She’s not sure where the street is located
She pulls out a map of the quarter
We don’t see the street


“Can you then watch the shop? 
I’ll run across the street and upstairs.  I can mapquest it.”

No way.  Really?
Again this intense trust that is thrown my way
always throws me
I want to be so trusting.
