Lonely Secrets

Prompt: "Nothing makes us as lonely as our secrets." Paul Tournier

What do you think about this quote and what kind of situations force us to keep secrets? Then, are all secrets necessary?

At times, secrets are necessary. To keep from hurting someone and to keep yourself put of trouble. I have had family secrets I know about but why hurt people and cause World War 3? I just kept the peace. About being lonely with our secrets. You keep secrets and keep friends from being hurt. Like at a job. Bosses don't need our secrets and everything unless it interfers with our jobs. People are entitled to their own secrets and things they don't want to talk about. You don't want others to think bad about you. You don't tell all the bad things you did or that has happened. We all have a mystery about us. That can make us intriguing.
