Hide and Seek

I hid a lot today.

I hid from my co-workers just how hard it is to come in every day to face lack of appreciation and effort. I guess I don't do a very good job.

I hid from my child the email I received from one of her teachers regarding her recent in-class attitude, which likely is influenced by her mom's problems.

I hid from my sweetheart the depth of my sadness. He doesn't deserve to be burdened with that.

What do you hide, Drunkards? What do you think the rest of us don't see?

  1. I'd tell you, but then it wouldn't be hidden. I'm hiding my increasingly active job search from all but a select few people.

  2. I'm afraid almost any answer I give may incriminate me. If I say I have something to hide but I'm afraid to share it that may lead to questions and I'm a terrible liar. Under interrogation I crack like an egg.
    And if I say I have nothing to hide that may lead to questions like, "Are you sure?" And the yolk will be on them.

You're thinking it, you may as well type it. The only comments you'll regret are the ones you don't leave. Also, replies to threads make puppies grow big and strong.
