The stories we share with one another are important.They show wisdom,andprovide inspiration. They are important to our development. But sometimes people chose not to tell.

Consider the negative effects ofnot sharing a story in the news:People are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola.

There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told.Bobette Buster said it like this,“The fact is,history hasshown us that stories not toldan become like a dangerous genie(妖怪)leftina bottle.When they are finally uncorked,their power to destroy is set free。”

There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story:they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages;they require courage and strength toshare;and of course,there are somestories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else.

Most of us have two selves:the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside.And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves,themore damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.

Honesty and openness is important:It proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human.We are not perfect or better.It highlights the importanceof hard work and personal development.Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely.But with hard wonk:we do not have to be restrictedto our mistakes.

Does this mean we admit every weakness,every disadvantage,and every secret regret to everybody we meet?No,of course not.There is a time and a placeand acertain level of relationship necessary for some stories tobe told in all appropriate manner.

Frank Smithson woke up and leaned over to turn off the alarm clock. "Oh no!" he thought to himself. " Another day at that office; a boss who shouts at me all the time."
