Transparent

Secrets we all have them. Truths, pains, uncertainties, fears about our past and present that we keep deep inside of us to ensure our vulnerabilities aren't shown. For if we share them, we become exposed. Naked for the world to see. We hide them, because as confident as we are, we are afraid of the rejection, pain, the reality that very few people have unconditional love for us and if for nothing else, we don't want to prove nay sayers right. If we exposed ourselves they will see us for who we truly are and possibly not love us like they once did, so we keep our little secrets deep within and deal with them silently day by day.

Okay...so what are a few of yours? The post is most powerful when you expose some of your deepest, darkest secrets and render yourself vulnerable before us.
Hmmm...Not so easy afterall.
