Secrets

" Something you tell everybody to tell nobody"

Writing on a Monday night because I had to think about something to reflect on. I didn't want blogging to be something so forced out - like I had to think of ideas on the spot, on a Friday evening. But I must say this inconsistency is a really bad habit because it shows the lack of discipline. In addition, this week I have to write two blog post. (But it's all fineeeee!)

Also, a short post for today because it's the first day of the holidays and I am already tired at 9 PM because I spent the whole day doing things which I love! So recently, someone told me a secret of a person which I wasn't really interested in but it gave me a shock. I got a shock because I wasn't expecting such news to go around. However, I tried to ignore it after that. Also, I got to know some people knew my secrets even though I did not tell them directly. That also gave me a shock.

And I realise that, PEOPLE KEEP SECRETS FOR A REASON/REASONS. 1) To hide something that they did wrong 2) To hide shame 3) To hide good deeds so that they won't be proud 4) To take care of one's heart 5) To just hide it from everyone because it is better 6) To run away from the truth 7) To hide the matter for the sake of it

So, which category do you belong to when you keep secrets? But after all the thinking and reflecting, I realise that all of us are in no position to keep any secrets of others or maybe sometimes our own secrets. Why? Because once we open our mouth, the secret isn't a secret anymore. And if that secret is between 2 or more people, it can never be a secret. To be VERY honest, it is very VERY difficult to trust people nowadays. I also learnt that there was no point keeping secrets because one day, people will eventually find out, no matter what who where why when how. If it was fated to be out there as a "hot" topic of interest, it will be. Especially in this era where people love to gossip - a.k.a membawang . (Let's be very frank guys.) It's scary but at the same time, that's reality. Everyone has their own dark secrets but also, it is a matter of time when people will know about it, especially long-term ones that we can't hide forever and a secret that would affect our future. But those secrets that are hidden because of shame, I hope that everyone gets the courage to admit it one day and isn't shy about it anymore. Sometimes, it feels better to let go than to hold on to something that isn't worth keeping or hiding.

I pray that our embarrassing secrets will be safely kept but if it will affect any relationships, there is no point in keeping or hiding it because one day, people might find out about it. And I pray that one day I have the courage to tell my life story and my secrets that I am so ashamed of telling. ♥
