Trust and Hope

There is trust that comes from absolutely knowing.
This kind of trust has no need of hope.
There is trust that comes from confidence.
The knowing is not absolute, so a teaspoon of hope is in order for good measure.
Sometimes trust and hope are operating in equality.
There is trust that is necessary because of having no other choice.
And there is trust that comes from having nothing to lose.
The protagonist is as good as dead, so why not go for it?
It's completely crazy, but at the same time a no-brainer.
You take the leap.
At some point toward the end there, the whole thing morphs from trust into just hope.
The control freak at one end of the spectrum.
The irresponsible, out of control freak at the other end.
What is normal?
What is insanity?
