What lys behind the Wall?

     It's truly amazing how much you think you know a person yet there's always something new to be learned or discovered. Think about it. In life everyone claims they have that one best friend who they tell everything to and trust with everything yet we still cannot know everything. We may know about what ticks them off and how they react to certain situations but there's always secrets that are held in and never known therefore separating a friendship by a gap of what we are allowed to know an what we aren't.

     Why is it that every person puts up a wall between there most intimate and heartfelt secrets if they truly trust someone with everything? Why as humans can we not allow one person to truly know everything about us? I can personally say that I am apart of this group of people. As much as I try to let someone get as close to me as possible they never really will because of the wall I've put upe and the 'secrets' that ly behind it. It's hard to trust people in a world that's full of such people that care all about everyone else. Maybe if life wasn't full of gossip we as people could really let someone know the true us behind the wall. A defense mechanism I suppose, the wall simply represents our comfort zone. Where we can be comfortable in our own skin and present it to the public where as behind the walls were still raw and shaping ourselves. We can only let people see what the world has molded and polished in order to fit into the image everyone else wants to see and not who we truly are. 

     Can anyone else agree to this or do humans really have the ability to become an open book to the world and everyone in it?
