Robert Gleeman Thanks for your detailed comment. You’re right, some secrets still carry consequences like the one you described. There’s no #timelimit to it.
That’s one reason why people guard their secrets so closely to their chest. The saying “Lose lips sink ships” must have come about when someone blurted out a deep dark secret. #discretion
I was thinking about cases where someone saw a #murder being committed. The murderer(s) would most definitely want to keep their #secret hidden. The witness would be hunted and killed. Being in the right place at the wrong time sucks! Even if the witness promised not to tell, they could not be trusted. Dead men tell no tales! #promises
