The Secret That Made Me Cry and Laugh

It was one of those secrets I never planned to tell.

Not because it was awful.

But because it was so weirdly human — it made me want to cry… and laugh at the same time.

I had buried it for years.

Tucked it behind bigger regrets and louder guilt.

But when I dropped it on FreeTo.Chat, something amazing happened:

I didn’t feel pathetic.

I didn’t feel judged.

I felt… relatable.

Like maybe the thing I thought made me unlovable was actually just a part of being human.

Someone reacted with 🤡. Someone else hit 🧠.

And for once, I didn’t hate myself for feeling something messy.

The secret didn’t change.

But I did.
