Defenses have their place. Sometimes you need them. Scratch that. Sometimes I need them. (I really have no idea if you do or not.) But, sometimes, you have to put your defenses back down, even if you think there's a chance you might be hurt.
My subconscious does not agree with me. Last night's dream? I was driving a white convertible, and I parked it, left the roof down, and left my purse in the driver's seat. When I came back, lo and behold, everything of value had been taken out of the purse. My brain is kind of a smartass and likes to tell me things in dreams as obviously as it possibly can. "If you leave your defenses down, someone's going to steal your stuff."
But, Brain, you need to shut up for a little while. Because I have to work on this, and to give my all to this project, I'm gonna have to leave the convertible top down and my purse in the seat, and just trust that my stuff won't get stolen, because there is respect on the other side, and people who respect you don't steal your stuff.
