There are many things that most don’t know about me. There are a few reasons for this, for each of the big things I generally keep to close family and friends.

There is the fact that I don’t feel a need to overshare any aspect of my life with everyone, including the wider internet. It’s not required. As quite a private person by nature, there isn’t a need to waffle on about stuff unnecessarily just to make noise.

With some aspects of my life that are probably seen as a ‘big deal’ if told to most, other people are involved in that story and they certainly don’t deserve to have opinions or judgement from anyone told that story. Far too often in today’s world, people think that their ‘opinion’ is the only one worth hearing without regard for fact and circumstances around those incidents. Such opinionated people are not worth speaking with because things are rarely black and white. I also have little patience for such loud, over opinionated folks as you can’t have a sensible conversation with them.

Yes, I do have things that most will never know about me, but they won’t either unless there is a lot of trust there.
