Where Do They Go?

"Where do they go...the things we think and feel but never say..."

This quote is from one of my favorite old shows, Everwood. For some reason it has always stuck with me. Where do they go? Those thoughts that you'd never tell anyone, the things we always want to say to someone but never have the guts to say, those things you feel deep in your heart but are too ashamed to say. I like to think all of these things have a place in our hearts, deep inside where no one sees but you.

Some of these may be regrets, secrets, or special memories, but they make us who we are. Life is not simply events we've lived, words we've said, and places we've been...there's more to us. Life is also the things inside our hearts, even things we'd never tell a soul. No one else knows, but us. And isn't that what makes us all unique? So make sure you keep things to yourself. No one has to know your whole life story, but you.
