Lock it up

When you open yourself and your life up to one person, remind yourself that people change. Opinions change. The only certain thing you have in this life is uncertainty. The risk you take in giving someone their fair share of your skeletons. What I have found was that they never, EVER fully grasp your reasoning. 

Maybe I write this to remind myself. Is it even fair to give someone that much of yourself to carry? Listen and hear me here for a second. I have done things I will tell no one of, I have done things that I had to do for survival. I know myself well enough to know that I did it so that my children would still have a mother at the end of the day. 

I let just one person in on that knowledge, and they will only receive on their level of perception. This is now where they cast judgement. Perhaps you can convince them of why, but can you ever fully trust that they understand?

No, you can't. 

How does one repair a mountain? One doesn't. So instead of cascading and shaping the mountain with your dynamite of truths. Let it be... and become a fucking insane writer, with a circle of knuckleheads for friends. 

In the end they are all out for themselves. So they don't even hear the genuine "you" in the first place. Save yourself the trouble.
