Can you keep a secret?

I find it funny and amusing to see how many of us claim that we are good at keeping secrets and can be trusted with any saucy, hush-hush details.

You say "Jangan beritahu sapa-sapa tau" or "You didn't hear it from me ok but...." and open up a page of secrets that are meant to be private, trusting the person won't be repeating himself to anyone else.

But next thing you know, the whole school already knows which guy/girl you like, what happened between you and your partner last night or which guy is secretly smoking cigarettes. We love to gossip, indeed. And when gossip sessions begin, big mouths start to open, vomiting out anything and everything we know or hear. No matter how much we claim we can keep a secret...secret.

So, next time you want to tell someone something personal and private, be careful about who you tell it too.

Because nothing spreads wilder than a wildfire other than a hot, sizzling piece of secret.
