Secrets
Everyone has secrets, those little pieces inside us that make us who we are, the ones that have shapped our lives. We are scared to share them most of the time. We think that no one will understand us when we do. We are made to believe that no one will understand, that no one will listen. Actually, most of the time the reason we don't listen is because we are screaming about our selfish desires too much to actually hear any one else.
The times in my life when I was actually honest with myself, are the moments that I felt the most alive. That bursting energy inside that makes you feel more alive, more free, it's exhilarating. Most people search for that feeling through drugs, sex, or "extreme" sports. I've found those moments when I've confessed, when I've been real with someone. So why do we hide behind our masks? If we as people were a tad more honest with each other and ourselves than I think the world would be a better place overall. But that means that we would have to admit that we might actually be human, and for some reason that just wouldn't fly.
