Words Left Unspoken

As a teenager, I find it hard to determine what is more important; love life? family? or studies? I guess I was too young. Or immature in a sense that I am less experienced than those people my age who are more exposed to what we called life. I can say I was raised with limitations and restrictions. When a child is taught to hide his emotions like anger, jealousy, and other malicious feelings that may offend others, he will practice that throughout his life and it will be hard for him to change that. When hiding feelings become the default practice of a child until early adolescence, it will apply to his more complicated feelings and emotions that are better shown than hidden. This is the point when he realize that showing his true feelings is better than hiding it. Because as the saying goes, "No secret are hidden forever.". But the time he is mature enough to realize that, it will be hard for him to reveal all of those accumulated burdens that are heavy enough to affect others. His common thought would be, "I should have told them earlier." Regrets come along and it will be one of the most stressful process in this situation.
