Living a simple life is not just buying what you need and recycling but also keeping your mind free of clutter. One sure way to do that is by keeping a secret. I'm pretty sure we have all been told a secret we wish we didn't know. Why? It really can burden ones soul. To remove the burden, the secret is told to someone else and so on.
Do yourself a favor - if someone tells you a secret don't tell anyone else (unless, someone is in danger, of course). You'll only cause more clutter in your mind. The burden of guilt is heavier than the burden of keeping a secret. All these thoughts just distract you from what really matters.
“If you reveal your secrets to the wind you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees.”
- Kahlil Gibran
