If you have watched enough of The Office, you know Scranton has one stripper. She shows up dressed like a nurse to help give a charity check, and she shows up in other ways at Dunder Mifflin.
She says, “Secrets secrets are no fun. Secrets secrets hurt someone.”

This scene came to mind when I read this quote by Paige Rien:
“We are as sick as our secrets.
The devil needs darkness, the shame cycle & disunity to be effective.”
You can go into the science of how secrets affect our health in real ways, but even more, it affects us spiritually. It affects us relationally. It’s pretty much always toxic.
A wise reminder from Scranton’s only stripper and an HGTV author.
