Secrets

    Secrets are strange things the surround our presence daily.  Firstly what are secrets? Secrets to me are defined to be knowledge that is to be kept private. This knowledge may be seen as useful or valuable to others, just something to draw interest or it could be completely useless to others.
         Why do we tell secrets in the first place? People mainly tell secrets to inform or gossip with the intention that the transferred information would be go not be widely spread. Secrets could be a good thing enabling your chosen people to be notified about the past, present and future. Secrets can be bad as they enable rumours to be passed around and different versions of original secrets are spread around many times which is when it could be the start of arguments.
      If secrets are to be told it is probably best that they are for good reasons and that they are about yourself and not others. Also they should be told to trustworthy people that you could count on as everyone needs someone they could talk to now and then. The reason why I say this is because if these secrets eventually do come out and they are about you it does not cause as much mayhem and you are not talking about anyone but yourself therefore it is only your business until you choose the involve anyone you else.
    Some people may feel happy that people can rely on them as they get told many secrets and others may just see people telling to secrets and just make assumptions like possibly thinking it was about them. This may cause rivalry between people which is just petty behaviour or sometimes understandable if someone does not tell you something and their actions make it appear like it was about you you may start to get a bit paranoid and grow in curiosity.
   I find the most annoying thing about secrets could possibly be when you trust someone and tell them something and they tell their companions and twist the story and it continues to happen as if it is some sort of vicious cycle until it reaches back to you. Then when you confront the person they lie blatantly to your face when they said they never said anything when you know full well they were the only person/ people you told. This is why it if you tell a secret the few people that know the better as then you know if something is repeated or just said it is a lot more easier to find out the distinction between your ‘friends’ and your friends.

Making mountains out of mole hills

Exaggeration throughout the nation,
Forgetting reality or covering it up,
Blowing things out of proportion,
Highlighting for attention,

Words are twisted for a mention,
Hide it now or detention,
Truth revealed thought not as exciting,
Court a punishment for media biting,

Selective memory for an impact,
No way to get out of this, the obstacles are packed,
Outburst of an audience great for fame,
Once discovered then not forgotten by name,

Then came flashbacks of what actually happened,
The truth will always creep back to a trap end,
Questions pop up as there is no doubt,
You do not think and start to shout,

Excuses or answers you reply as they attack,
Reputation ruined now completely off track,
Without the fame and high expectation,
The media would not have given it a second look or the nation,

You have now become a well-known figure,
People continue to slate for a gossip trigger,
Then take what they can and bring your world to a tumble,
Just like setting a disaster triggered with rumble.

Hope

If you find it, don’t lose it,
It meanders in the pathway called life,
It is always there and always will be there but it is like a fire,
You just need to know how to set it alight,
When in burns it has a flickering flame,
Dim at times but makes you feel warm,
We tend to depend on it more when situations break the human soul,
It has encouraged mortals in their time of need,
You could hope you for good or bad
Although that just determines your inner beauty,
Hope is like a constant company always by your side,
It is like a friend which will be with you no matter what,
Of course you have your ups and downs,
Depending on certain circumstances the bond could break between you and this friend,
It can comfort you in the bitter times of feeling cold,
If hope disappoints, some may lose faith and give up,
Yes, there is a frown the with painful sorrow if hope does not produce a positive outcome,
Yes, there may be a teardrop with each loss,
But covering this up at times is a forced smile stretched upon that tired face,
Not to worry as behind all this your old friend hope still pulled you through once again,
Not only just to carry on because there a consequences behind every action but because underneath that there a foundation of a valued reason for each event,
Some that just may never be discovered in this lifetime,
Still always have that spark of faith and remember that patience can be a very significant element it hope.

Go for it or wait until you have lost it then miss it?

    People say that there is a right time for everything but really is there? If you go too early you can make the situation worse and the same it you go too late. Go for it? Nothing you do will really please everyone in reality so really you need to look at the same situation from many different perspectives to see what is best. What is best? That is the hard question. You will feel it when you have got it.
    Sometimes people have a gut instinct knowing exactly what they want but are too stubborn just to reach out and get it focusing more about opinions and attitudes that the society have about their actions instead of focusing on their actions and the reasons behind doing such things. Others may say that sometimes it is best to wait and let whatever may be destined be but imagine waiting a lifetime for an opportunity then one day when it is staring you in the face you don’t take it and all this time you have waited for the ‘right’ moment suddenly an event snatches this opportunity and you cannot get it back. You feel sorrow and regret because something you could of had drifted or was suddenly snatched out of your life with without a fight. This is a strong example of ‘whatever you contribute, you get back’ so if you do not put in effort, don’t expect anything back.
      Unfortunately of course it is easier said than done but trust me I have been there and brought the T-shirt many times which is why it makes me realise that we should not take things for granted as whenever something is broken it can never be fixed back exactly how it was and also a certain part of you seems to go away but no one notices as you keep yourself to yourself which sometimes seems easier when you are doing it as you don’t really want people to know your business or weaknesses so in future they could use it against you.
    It is better to express or communicate these thoughts somehow otherwise the little things you may think is not that much of a big deal could build up until you cannot breaking point as mainly it is the most unexpected people that put fronts on hide everything simply because they don’t want attention for issues of negativity and they don’t want people to look at them in a different light.
    Overall I personally conclude that going for it seems like the best idea as if you go to early at least you can say you tried but leaving it too late, you will basically have to suffer the consequences which seem harsh but you had the chance and you didn’t take it. Decisions...decisions...
