Do you want to know a secret?

In one of my writing groups we are being asked to write anything on the topic of  "Do you want to know a secret?"  I must put on my psychotherapist hat here.  Secrets are harmful. In a family system, secret keeping can keep a family entrenched in trauma. Secrets can breed many problems.  As a Catholic, I am saddened by the secrets that higher ranking catholic supposed to be's kept, to shield priests from the accountability they should have taken after abusing vulnerable children. Oh, don't get me started......

Too much can happen in any family or group dynamic if secrets are kept.  Now I will tell you a secret about me........
I was an extra in the worst movie ever made.  It is called " The comeback".  Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
