Secrets and its effects.

Secret according to the online dictionary, is  something hidden from the knowledge of others.

Secrets are kept at times because of fear of what its knowledge will do to others or the bearer.

Some secrets can be kept as long as its for a good cause such as keeping a secret of a surprise birthday. The purpose of such secret is to indeed make the  surprise worth a suprise.

Some secrets are not worth keeping because they can be an instrument of destruction.
