Choices! What will it be?

Mystery

It really was a secret.
In one city, there was a secret tunnel in the local mountain.
Through this tunnel, it was possible to cross from one country to two others.
The tunnel branched left and right in one place.
Left to one country and right to another.
Few people knew about this, but local residents boldly used the tunnel and calmly moved around the countries, bypassing all sorts of customs control posts.

So what is the secret?
Probably everyone will have this question.
And the secret was that not a single resident of the city had the right to talk about this tunnel!
After all, tell the world about this tunnel - everyone who needs to benefit from it will immediately come running.
This secret would have lasted forever, but an offensive incident occurred.

Once, during one of his trips to another country, someone’s little son began to scream loudly in the tunnel, or rather act up.
He shouted loudly, but tunnels, caves - they love silence.
At that moment, due to a strong scream and echo, the mountains shook with terrible force.
Stones began to fall from above and as a result, one of the tunnel roads was completely filled up.
The only good thing here was that no one was hurt, but...
But those who were constantly eager to go to one of the countries suffered.

After all, now it was possible to get into only one country, and not two.
At first, the townspeople were offended by the child, but one wise woman appeared on the horizon.
She walked through the tunnel, looked at everything, wrote down.
After a while, this woman came out to the local residents and gave them the following verdict.
“If you want to get to a second country, you have one option - to remove the rubble! This, of course, will take a lot of effort, energy, and time, but we know what reward awaits us all from this.”

And the reward was truly worthy.
In the country where access was blocked, there were many useful and cheap goods.
Residents of the city did not think long and decided to clear the path together.
they all stood in one row and passed the stones down the chain to each other.
After a short period of time, there was light at the end of the tunnel and the residents were overjoyed!
The path was cleared and the residents drew up special rules for visiting the tunnels, where one of the rules was silence!
Here the fantasy about the tunnel has come to an end and I would like to tell you why the choice was about a mystery.

Mystery is my image and my nickname.
I love secrets and we all have secrets.
Sometimes, we can't wait to tell the secret we're keeping to someone's usual request or demand.
But a secret was created to be kept!
These are like our keys to steemit!
You won't tell anyone about your passwords or account keys, will you?
As my grandfather said, if one person (you) knows about a secret, then only you know it!
And if you shared your secret with someone, then the whole world knows about it!

But there are secrets that cannot be hidden.
It also happens that if you tell a secret, you might save someone’s life.
You need to comprehend any secret in your head, analyze the consequences and think far ahead about what can await you or a participant in the secret.
Just think about the consequences and act on a logical solution to the problem.
And it’s better when there are no secrets in your head that interfere with your life.
Do I have such secrets?
Probably there is, but the blockchain will not know about my secrets!
I, like a secret, will remain a secret.
At this point, I’ll probably finish my thoughts.
