Secrets

What’s a secret?

It’s something we keep inwardly, not disclosing to someone else.

Secrets don’t always have to be a bad thing. It could also be a special thing. A memory, something you want for yourself.

I remember a friend once told me how she was upset when her husband refused to reveal some bits of a story and his reason was; “ka Myelenev ma nomso or”.

He felt that he didn’t have to tell her the entire details. The direct translation of his words were “A mans hidden things/private matters”. I believe he wanted to keep some of the details to himself, for whatever reason.

I didn’t blame him. I feel like that sometimes too.

A secret is sometimes a really good thing. What if you plan a surprise for a loved one, wouldn’t you need to keep stuff secret? At least until the main day or event.

In my opinion, expecting to be told everything and holding nothing back seems to be a bit much. We should give people a chance to keep some details to themselves.

Everyone has something that is just for them, something to keep, something to cherish, something to take to their grave.

  1. yes, I’m thinking about the secrets I have, one in particular. It is not earth shattering and only involves one person; no one else needs to know; it if got back to her, what I thought, it would cause such hurt; we are parted now but I still have respect for her; she was once someone I loved; it will not be spoken
