     I think what I am not understanding here is
referred to below in a question postulated to you.

     What is dynamic quality to you?  I thought DQ was
something undefined and when we define it or point it
out we have static quality.  DQ is not a concept
either, because if it were we would notice SQ again.

     I trust my wife.  I know my wife.  I do not fear
my wife.  I am not stuck with my wife.  I do not need
to think about my wife too much.  I do not worry about
my wife (sometimes, but I don't think that is a trust
issue, it is genuine fear that something may happen
with her, something as simple as will she make it home
safely in the snowstorm).  So for me trust is
delineated from what you defined trust to be.  I
thought trust was something warm and good hearted.  It
is applying value in something or somebody in a
certain elevated sense.  I trust that the root will
hold me as I climb up the slope.  Therefore I allow
all of my weight to be held by the tree root.  I trust
and have put value into the strength of the tree root.
 The quality of this whole situation is that I trust
you may agree or disagree with what I have just said.

Thanks,
SA
