The Values of Confidentiality

Because, it's a bitch to have words spoken of you. Truth, untruths or the grey area in between, when you keep the same words secret. To have held everything in to protect a friend, only to realise that these words didn't perhaps warrant much protection at all. To have tried to maintain justice, and to keep my silence, to not skew the story in my favour, only to realise, it doesn't matter even if i tried.

'IF you can keep your head when all about you 
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise'

Subtlety obviously isn't my strong suit.
