'hush hush'

secrets.
what do you do, what do you do?
its weird. for so long i've been able to handle secrets. probably because i hardly have any myself in the first place; i always have friends around i trust. and while i may have 'verbal constipation' of sorts, like heather puts it, i do sort them out. with close ones, or mostly by myself. everyone, i suppose, is allowed a coupla skeletons in their closets, and i would have mine, of course.
some have bigger closets. and some have darker skeletons.
and i perhaps have that privilege, that my friends do trust their selective old bones with me from time to time. i have very few things i can be proud of, but one of them at least, is that people do trust me. maybe its the face; or maybe its the fact that i hardly get surprised at much anymore. though, i hope its actually because i manage to help them out with it or sort through it as objectively as possible.
but i digress. as much as i have been able to be objective and blunt, i find myself losing that touch recently. with all the stuff happening, i have gotten myself emotionally attached to my problems. and while i recognise the mind to be more wise than the heart, lately my heart has been rather deafening.
how ironic.
and i'm finding skeletons hiding in all the wrong places. and these secrets i learn, i sometimes wonder if its better that i left them in the closet, or do a forensic on them and bury them asap. but knowing me, i'd much rather know everything and face them upfront, instead of having them lie six feet under and come right up at the worst possible murphy moment.
ok one dilemma down, another conundrum in the line. now i know these things, and like the proverbial truth that hurts, it sucks to know them. so the heart screams, and the mind tries to find ways to shut it up. So- what do u do? Get myself in the calm and objective state of mind, talk it out and sort it through; or let it slide, and trust the other to be able to face it squarely and honestly, sort it through, and be wise enough not to let it happen again?

But i realise both are not options at all. Their simple idealistic logics are reason enough.
So what do you do?
