Behind closed doors

Who are you behind closed doors? What’s the one thing that would destroy you if everyone found out? If someone went through the search history on your phone or laptop and posted it on your social media account would you lose “friends”?

What makes us keep secrets or hide certain behaviors? Does it mean we don’t love and accept the part of ourselves we’re trying to conceal? Do we honestly believe we’re the only ones who are hiding something? And, if we all are hiding something, do we really know who we are?

Does owning who you are mean having nothing to hide? Is there a difference between hiding something and simply keeping things to oneself? 

Why is it that the same thing that causes embarrassment to one person makes a great story for someone else? Why do failure and inadequacy make us feel so ashamed?

If all your secrets were out would you die of humiliation or finally be free to live?

Is it  embarrassing to not know the answers?
