A secret needs two faces to bounce between; a secret needs to see itself in another pair of eyes
A secret needs two faces to bounce between; a secret needs to see itself in another pair of eyes
Secrets are like bouncing balls, constantly moving between two faces, two sets of eyes. They thrive on the exchange of information, the passing of whispers from one person to another. A secret needs to see itself reflected in the eyes of another, to feel the weight of its existence in the gaze of someone else.When a secret is kept by only one person, it can feel heavy and burdensome. It weighs on the soul, begging to be released into the world. But when that secret is shared with another, it gains momentum, bouncing back and forth between two individuals. It gains a life of its own, growing and evolving with each exchange.
The act of sharing a secret can be both exhilarating and terrifying. It requires a level of trust and vulnerability that is not easily given. But once that trust is established, the secret takes on a life of its own, bouncing between two faces with a sense of freedom and release.
