Trust is taken for granted when we're children. We have a healthy suspension of disbelief as we learn about the world, and it's intricacies, and it's inconsistencies. We will exercise our ability to doubt, if a grown up or some knowledgeable (see: older) kid pushes the truth too far

Thank you Douglas. You are a source of inspiration, and the root of much pining.

There was something else that you discovered because of the trust we enjoyed in Danny. I think it happened to both of us. Because they could come out safely, we could get to know the bad things inside us: anger, cruelty, crawling things. When we looked at them, felt them moving as they move inside us, we realized the truth: they are inside everyone, not just us. We are not freaks. There is no horrible shame to suffer
