This week was fun. During last weeks list writing I came up with this list for week 3. I was talking to my husband & I asked him to tell me something that I do not know about him. He tried very hard to volunteer a piece of knew information to me, but he at that moment was unable to come up with one thing. I know that there is something that I do not know about him but on the spot nothing came to mind.
That sparked an interest of wondering what are things that I keep from most people? Also, why do I keep these things from people? I made my list here and posted it below. After reading through it I realized that for whatever reason there are many things that I keep from most people (other than close friends & family). I know that I am not alone in keeping things from our acquaintances. The things that I am referring to are things like personality traits and sharing things that make you, YOU. Such as your sense of humor, what makes you tick, the things you really enjoy etc.
Okay… Here is my small list of things that for whatever reason I just don’t volunteer to acquaintances. Below this list is the full list of the random life things that people wouldn’t know about me unless they’ve known me my entire life. I’m going to take today to think about why I have a short list. Why does anyone have a short list?
