That 'FACELESS' Elephant In The Room

 

HOW often were we told [sometimes whispered through] NOT to keep SECRETS!@#$%?  THAT we've got to be transparent.  THAT we be seamless.  THAT we be an 'OPEN BOOK'.  Ouch!@#$%?  TELL IT TO THE MARINES, dude.  Game's over long time back.  We're NOT even in the 19th century anymore.  On a serious note, I have a 'NOT SO' giveaway question here:  In the light of our threads with regard SECRETS, can someone guess as to WHO/WHAT is that FACELESS ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM!@#$%?

And that 'NOT SO' tough answer is......  YesYesYow, you hit it 'spot on'.  It is NO LESS than SOCIAL MEDIA.  YES, I'm NOT here to defend any Tom, Dick and Harry BUT to be brutally frank, while decades back, SOCIAL MEDIA was nothing more than just somewhere on the fringes, these recent years, SOCIAL MEDIA has literally TAKEN OVER our lives.  DON'T look farther than simply prowling through TikTok and Meta's Facebook❎❎❎

SECRETS get spilled ten times faster than the speed of light, YES that breaches Mach 10 [approximately 12,348 kilometers per hour].  Juicy SECRETS whether it pertains to geo-politics and the Middle East conflicts, the 'below the surface' strategic moves of Saudi Arabia's crown prince [that's Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud] WHO's literally running the show in his country, and over to the juicy rumors coming from the British Royals, and the endless juice from Hollywood, there's that FACELESS ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM💥💥💥

NOT to douse cold water over those damn 'juicy rumors' and half-truths [a.k.a. FAKE NEWS], let's go back to basics.  There are just things in our lives that would remain as such [and it's imperative that you commit to be utterly protective to shield these SECRETS away from SOCIAL MEDIA before you become toast and thrown under the bus:

• YOUR personal matters of your home.  Leave it at that.
• YOUR or your family's health issues.  Leave it that way.
• YOUR earnings, your ballooning $$$.  Shield it away.
• YOUR priorities yesterday, today and tomorrow.  YES, you collaborate only with the immediate parties you would need for those priorities.  None others, period

Our takeaway:  Surely, most of our readership will blurt out LIKE:  WE KNOW THOSE REMINDERS.  DON'T MENTION IT.  BUT hey dude, the reason WHY we're highlighting these reminders is all because of that FACELESS ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.  SOCIAL MEDIA will never stop to tempt you to send a DM or a TikTok post to your friend, colleague and even strangers you casually met for the first time any OR all of these too sensitive SECRETS because if at all, these are yours [and your own immediate family's] alone.  To be an OPEN BOOK? YES you can BUT be super-duper mindful of the boundaries etched in the sands😡😡😡
