On Personalism

How can we presume a personality if we cannot keep portions of ourselves personal? In order to preserve our personality we must be personable to others, a feat only accomplished through reserving personal details and minutiae for the private audiences of selected confidantes. It is no virtue to be open to all and spew out life's intricacies to every passerby. Keep a part of yourself sacred, let yourself be mysterious to those who are too shallow and disconnected to care. It is easier to mold your character when it is protected from the scorching rays of publicity that cause it to harden and crack.
