secret: something that is kept hidden, or concealed.


secrets... most ppl have some of their own... some have lots of them... others... have dark, horrible ones... almost everyone keeps a personal secret or the very least someone else's secrets.. i, unfortunately, am not spared of secrets... i told body once i don't have secrets.... now... i'm not so sure... ppl keep giving me theirs...


i never could quite understand why ppl want to keep them.... to.. protect oneself? to prevent others from using the information against you? to exclude others? but then again... if one doesn't have a secret.... the secret can't be used against them.... they will not be afraid of the secret leaking out.... won't have to worry that friends might sell them out.... don't have to censor constantly.... don't have to constantly keep tabs on who knows wat...

having a secret i feel.... is a burden... in order to keep one... u must do a 101 thing to make sure it stays secret... then u worry abt the day it won't stay a secret.... i don't understand.... the investment of resources to keep one doesn't seem to give ppl any rewards.... the only known benefit i see with having secrets is that it promotes bonding amongst ppl who share a secret.. and maybe on a few occasion, prevents unscrupulous ppl from manipulating you lar...

i don't know... i'm never a secret person... but i guess i ended up being a secret's keeper..
