What happens behind the door?

Each of us has a story. Whether it is the story of a single mother, whether in love or the story is the story of a husband left, often hide the story in the outermost gate of the heart. And this not because we want, but it hurts too much to open that door.
Elevator did not work today, and I sit on the 9th floor. So I had to climb stairs twice. While climbing a neighbor watched the door crack, and when I approached, it suddenly closed. Then I asked: What happens behind the door? What is man that story whenever someone's coming, closing the door with the key? What story has lower neighbor, the woman at the corner, the old man who sells flowers or dirty child who walks alone on the street? We used to leave any feeling, any problem and any secret behind the door, then close the door well and go out into society. Then, waiting behind the door through its hole and if someone's coming a close quickly and suspicious look through the viewfinder.
Something is happening behind the door. Something that makes us a good close and not open to anyone. Something that makes us want protection and safety. Perhaps the fear of love. Maybe I was injured so badly that not anyone want to open. You may have been hit and you have not increased. Maybe you are a father crying every evening for your family. Or maybe you are a mother who only knows how many she has endured in this life. Whether you are a wife feels unloved, whether you're a child who feels he does not understand parents, do not forget the need to open the door from time to time. Remember that in a house, the family is allowed to enter. Do not isolate yourself behind a door cold and dark. Leave out all the pain and disappointments, let them out of the house! Do not know what's going on behind your door ... but dare to open!

I think most of us prefer to keep the door closed almost all the time because we fear of what others might find if we open the door to them;we're afraid that they might misjudge and misinterpret and then spread the world and create us a bad image in society,but closing the door for everyone is not a solution in my opinion.There must be a few people whom we trust and for whom that door should be open,because we need to communicate with others and tell them about our problems just as they need to communicate with us,so let's try to open the gates to our souls for those who deserve to enter there and try to establish new relationships and ways of communication with them.

There are many secrets behind closed doors. There is not a single person in this world that truly knows another through and through. We, being human are very curious people. We thrive on others problems and mishaps. We love controversy. And we all want to see the true inner secrets of others. But even though we may pass remarks on their behaviors, we ourselves are guilty of some of the same exact things. It comes down to shame. While some people have no shame at all, most people do. They do not like to show that side of themselves no matter what. It is what it is.

I think this pertains to things we keep to ourselves. Those secrets we have where for whatever reasons, we choose to keep it and not dare to share it to others. But you see, when we get to know someone, whom we could trust. Then that's the time that we would be willing to share those secrets. Sometimes it could help us move on and live a normal life.
I remember the four quadrants of life. There's one window there which is called blind spot. Meaning, such window refers to things about us wherein its only us who know about it. It's not yet been known to others. Actually I could not perfectly remember it right but its a very nice thing to consider in our dealings to life and to people around us.

hello didi, we sometimes want to keep that door close because
the pain is just to either embrassing or painful..
But I agree with you that its more or less better to share these
issues with someone because the fact of trying to hide them at
all times can be very very tough on one body and mind...
ut I don't think anyone should be pushed to express that secret
because I believe that it should be up to the individual....
Sometimes its easier to take a secret to the grave in order to
spare someone else's feeling....

Well character of everybody in the world may not be same, some people try to hide the things and short out the problem among themselves. They always afraid that surrounding might spread the things in different directions and their image might expose to bad. On the contrary many of them like to share the problem with surrounding and short out the problem with society. As I wrote that different people have different mentality which is very difficult to rectify, but to share with well wishers all those who can give valuable suggestion to short out the matter is not a bad practice. Where we can attain indispensable knowledge which might be very much helpful to solve a critical problem. We alone can not live in the society, there must be someone to share our sorrow, happiness etc. Good knowledges and advices from every directions would definitely give tremendous help to make a perfect life.

Im pretty guilty of this on 2 occations...1 shame..the other i was hurt
So terribly bad that i cant bring myself to move on. I was so very close
to my dad an i guess u could say a midlife crisis changed who he was
completely. i was daddys liitle girl...he never hurt or dissapointed..an to b
hurt in my 30s the way he did devestated be to the point that i trusted
no one with my heart not even my husband..if the one person i loved
an looked up to did this to me...anyone can...it was so painful. my husband
didnt understand he wad never close to a parent an didnt see why
i couldnt move on..so of course we fought then too...i built walls around
walls to protect me from never getting hurt that way again.
what i learned is with walls you also cant experience joy..an happiness.
i been tryin to slowly tear them down now by talkin to my best friend. although
its not easy im trying...i really felt nothing for like 5 years. im ready to enjoy life
again an that begins with love an trustl
