Secrets

Here's a question:

When you are keeping a secret for someone, does your obligation end when that person dies?
Once that person ceases to exist, is it okay to blab their secret to anyone?

How about this:
How about you keep keeping that secret because you're a still a living, decent human being?
That person's death is not the end of your decency. How about that?

Unless you're not a decent human being.  Then, by all means, blab your stupid face off.

(Still p!ssed over sh!t one aunt said about my mother after Mom died six years ago.)

It depends on if it would hurt or adversely affect someone else.
Probably better to just keep the secret.

Yes, keep the secret if others are still affected by it. If absolutely everyone were dead, it would be okay--- but that means you would be dead, too, right?
