The importance of trust and sharing in overcoming personal struggles.

Privacy is a necessity; regardless of our age, we all need privacy. We have some people who are facing or going through difficult times. Instead of sharing or speaking out so that they can see help, they will keep it to themselves. The quote "A problem shared is half solved" means if we share our problem with family, siblings, or close friends, they are going to look for solutions for us instead of keeping our problem to ourselves.

I am a private person, and I am careful with what I say outside. I also love to keep things to myself. I hate it when people invade my privacy, and likewise, I hate to invade people's privacy.
There was a time when I was sad because of something. Out of my friends, I only trusted one of them. It's not that I don't trust the remaining ones, but she's the one I trust. The same goes for her; she trusts only me. So when I was sad, she asked me what happened. I told her nothing; it was just that I was tired.

She said I might be lying, but my eyes couldn't be lying. She made sure to voice the problem out of me before I told her what made me sad. She encouraged me that I should cheer up and say that all is well.
Even as private people, we should all have someone we can trust with all of our hearts, with whom we can share our problems so that we can see solutions to our problems. But if we don't share our problems, then how do we expect our problems to be solved? We have some people who love to keep their problems to themselves and carry them to their graveyard, all because they feel they don't want people to know the problem they are facing.

Some people will keep their privacy or problems to themselves so that even family, friends, and siblings won't even know that they are facing any problems. All they do is smile at people, and if they ask them if they are fine or good, for them to voice out their problems, they will say they are good.

---

Even though I don't invade people's privacy, that doesn't mean I don't check on them, because if the problem arises, they are not the only ones who will face the problem. But because we ask people what happened to them and they say nothing, and if the problem arises, we now say, "It's not my problem because I used to ask him/her", that doesn't mean that because they don't share what's happening to them, we should just ignore them and allow them to face the problem by themselves.

I read a story about a man who was looking for three hundred thousand because they framed him in his workplace that he stoled company's money and they gave him two weeks to look for the money and return it or they would send him to prison, the man managed and raised one hundred and fifty thousand and he's looking for the remaining money, so he's friends noticed that he was always sad and depressed they asked him what happened and what made him sad, he would lie that it's about his work problem, but he's friends knew he was lying so they left him alone.

---

One day they saw him crying and asked what happened he said nothing, all he's friends were angry and voiced the problem in his mouth and he told them what happened and that it remained two days before the deadline for the money or they would send him to prison, so all he's friends managed and raised the remaining money for him and he went to pay, for example, if his friends didn't manage or notice his behaviour that's how he would have gone to prison. Not all problems we can keep to ourselves; there are some we can share with our family, siblings, and friends.
