What Kelsey said...

Today, Kelsey, my friend and former student posted a question in her blog and I am interested in your answer.
Do you think some words should be kept private? Or should we reveal our whole selves in order to become closer to others?
What is just yours? Does anyone really know you? Really? How do you choose who does? Do they have to meet a certain criteria? What if your present best friends left, or you went to college without them like Kelsey. How long do you think it would take to trust someone that much? Is there a you that no one else knows and should you let anyone in that deep? Why?
