Everyone has a secret, something nobody knows deep down inside of them, a secret nobody will ever find out, unwillingly waiting in side of them to be revealed to another human being. As this secret grows inside of you, becoming even more secret with every breath you take, more secrets are becoming real inside of you. Secrets hide inside of you, barely even noticed until somebody comes along and you must make an effort to hide it from them. A secret brings excitement, fear, and knowledge into this world.
Everybody has a secret and with it they develop a fear of discovery and excitement of knowing they have something to call their own. Francie had a secret; she lied to the principal about moving and living with relatives in a home where, if she had really lived there, would have been able to attend the school she desperately wanted to attend. McGarrity and Johnny had a secret of their own of how Johnny owed him money, but after Johnny’s death, McGarrity had kept their secret even more. Secrets can be let out, as McGarrity’s secret about his wife was told to Katie, or kept even closer than before, such as Johnny owing McGarrity money.
A secret can be something to fear, the fear of somebody finding out about it, or a fear of you finding out a secret that you never wanted to know. Secrets can also be a joy, something to be proud about, although others may not even know it is you that they are envying. Secrets can also be a source of knowledge, knowledge of your friends, your family, even yourself. Secrets are the foundation of hope, for the future, love, of your friends and family, and hate of those who despise you and through their secrets you see that.
