Secrets.

How can we accept another to keep our secret if we have been unable to keep it ourselves.
-François de La Rochefoucauld

I read this today.
I fell in love with this today.

It makes so much sense to me.
Really. Why would people trust others with their secrets, If we can't keep them ourselves?
Telling a secret is like saying "Hey it's okay to tell my secret. I did."


I have always lived this way, but never actually thought about it.
Ha. I can't even think of 5 secrets I have told about myself (:
Is that boastful?
But I've always thought telling secrets is foolish. Maybe it's because I think too much. I'm an old soul.

But back to the point.
That french guy is a smart dude.
Don't tell your secrets. They will only come back to you.
