The hidden secret.. That could Destroy?? Part B

Contd...
No that I know what a secret is and what destroy means. It's time to go deeper. In my previous post I discussed about what I meant by secrets.. What secrets were and in why we keep those. As aptly said by a reader.. We sometimes keep secrets because we don't want people to have sympathy with us or pity us.. So true.. Isn't it..

Coming back to the real question.. Can it really destroy??Can it really pull people away from us??

As said earlier secrets are of various types. Some secrets are held on to only to be revealed later, some secrets are held on to because you're scared, some because you cheated , some because you care, some because it's devastating to tell anyone.

The destruction, a secret can cause is only proportional to the type of secret it is and the hurt it can cause. If you know that you've wronged a person, in a way which would have hurt you if you were in the other person's shoes,
then yes, it can destroy.

If you hold on to a secret only because you're embarrassed that it happened and you're afraid that it can destroy. Then in that case you should not be hiding it from anyone. I don't particularly say that you go out blabbering about it.. But then you don't really have to hide it also.. It's past.. and you should let bygones be bygones.

BUT,
What if it's that dark secret?? The secret which you've held on to yourself only... in your lifetime up till now and which you believe will make everyone look down upon you... The sort of secret which became yours by accident... Something that happened because you had no control over it.. But still you believe that it can destroy you, make you feel alone and attract people to pity on you. Because you can't really trust anyone with such sort of information. The secret that give you nightmares and wake you up crying.
These secrets really do have a power to destroy you. Don't you think so??

Yes.. They do... They have a power to destroy you in a way which will leave you alone.. In a way which you probably think it will destroy you..

BUT... that's only when you disclose it to people who are not worthy of it.. people who love you will accept it.. They will be right next to you.. comforting you and letting you know that they are there.. they'll care for you because they want to and not out of pity... they will help you accept the hard reality and will make you move on.. they will simply confess their love for you and will let you know that  nothing you say about your past will shoo them away..


So my take will be.. No secret can destroy you.. Not until you decide which people are actually worth it... The only ones that you should worry about leaving you alone are the people who are just waiting for something like that to happen.. but then again.. they aren't the ones worthy of being in your life.. If they can't accept you and your past.. They have no right to be there in your present...

(JUST MY TAKE.... NO OFFENCE TO ANYONE)
