3．As is known to us all，the stories we share with one another are significant，which shows our wisdom，providing our inspiration and attaching importance to our development.But occasionally people choose not to tell.

There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story：they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages；they require courage and strength to share，and of course，there are some stories that should be kept secret -especially those that embarrass someone else.
Most of us have two selves：the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside.And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves，the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.
Honesty and openness is important.It proves we are trustworthy.It displays we are human.We are not perfect or better.It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development.Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely.But with hard work，we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes.
