Shame leads to secrets, and secrets lead to lies, and lies ruin everything.

(0 Reviews)

Shame often prompts people to hide their true feelings and experiences, turning them into secrets. These secrets can be difficult to maintain and may create emotional barriers. Over time, the need to conceal the truth can lead to dishonesty and a cycle of lies, which tend to damage relationships and trust. Ultimately, lies can cause widespread harm, disrupting lives and eroding personal integrity. Recognizing the destructive nature of shame and dishonesty highlights the importance of honesty and openness to foster genuine connections and healing.
