Some secrets are wonderful, like when it's Christmas time and you smuggle something special into the house, and hide it in the back of the closet until you can wrap it. If you're like Susan, you might give a hint or two, like saying, "I was Santa's elf today!" But most secrets are not wonderful at all. The reasons why we keep them can be complicated, and I suppose can be rationalized and explained away. The folks in Alcoholics Anonymous like to say, "You're only as sick as your secrets." (You know me. I tried to find out who is actually responsible for saying that first, and I couldn't.) I don't know about you, but I don't want to be sick.
