I came to a realization yesterday that pretty much explains how I'm naive. First off, I am a Sagittarius, and am thusly labeled as naive. AND IT'S TRUE! I wouldn't say I'm all that interested in Astrology, but every time I read about myself, it says that one of my weaknesses is that I expect everyone around me to be as truthful as I am. I don't believe in deceit... I feel it's a tactic of the weak and manipulative. ANYWAY- So I tend to believe people which is stupid, 'cause I'm intelligent AND I've been burned before. But here's what I think is happening:
Imagine two people in a movie theater. The movie is a sequel, and only one of these two has seen the original. During the film, amidst a barrage of action and information, a reference to the first film is made. Without hesitation (or missing a beat of what's happening now) the person who has seen the first film leans over to the newbie and whispers the crucial information as a concise synapsis. The newbie quickly files the new information in their head and translates the images before them instantaneously based on this new pillar of knowledge. Somehow all seems right. BUT WHAT MADE IT POSSIBLE? The newbie was able to move foreward (if you will) because they didn't have to weigh the actual possibility of truth behind the words of the other. The smooth transition was made possible by that very naivitee I am a victim of... They took it as A GIVEN.
