An illustration of four transparent bubbles floating in space looking down over a planet earth. In one, a pair of feet walks a tightrope. Behind the feet, a small dog follows. Stars flicker in the top right. Below the dog, two people look down on the earth from a fire escape. To the right of them is the word “TRUST”in light yellow. The footer text reads “#CMTRUST” and “Illustration by Ibrahim Nasir” to the left and “CreativeMornings” to the right.

Our Theme for July is TRUST.

It was chosen by our Islamabad chapter and illustrated by Ibrahim Nasir.

Trust is the invisible thread that weaves the fabric of our relationships and society together. But, in turbulent times, doubt can unravel our strengths.

So, go with your gut. Put your trust in a higher power, in our institutions, and in karma. Believe that people will do the right thing. Trust the process. And that your creativity is a well that will never run dry.

When we trust each other, we feel safe to share ideas, give feedback, and take risks. It requires vulnerability and a willingness to be open to the possibility of disappointment or betrayal. So, trust is not purely belief or faith. It is an active choice.

Trust is a gift. It must be given before it can be earned.
