You and I have had experiences that, if revealed publicly, might change everything for us, and not necessarily for the better, or so we believe.
You and I hold beliefs that, if discovered by others, may lead to lost friendships and social scorn, or so we believe.
You and I have passions and interests that, if shared with friends or our "FB Family" could result in public humiliation or ridicule, or so we believe.
If all that were true, we could stand to lose a LOT by being and celebrating who we REALLY are, couldn't we?
