Do You Want To Know A Secret?

Do you have secrets that you plan to take to the grave?  Are there things in your past that you want to bury and hope no one ever finds out about them?

Everyone has secrets. My mother-in-law had an undisclosed recipe for Rum Balls that she swore she would take with her when she died. And that she did.  No one ever figured out her secret ingredient.  But what good did it do for her not to share it so we could continue to enjoy her wonderful dessert?

There are secrets we hide, never discuss, and hope no one ever finds out.  We keep secrets to protect those we love or to prevent people from thinking less of us.

Strange......But True

The two lane road was narrow with many curves.  The logging truck was approaching my car swiftly just as its two huge front tires disengaged and rolled towards me with deadly speed.  

Within seconds of hitting my windshield, they separated and went down either side of my truck, leaving us in shock.  

Unbelievable, but true.
