Can a Leopard Change Its Spots?

I would like to addressed the topic “Can a leopard change its spots?” It may be true in some cases whereas it may be not depending on one’s ability and determination. With strong determination, one can change its habit. Of cause, we need to overcome barriers and difficulties. It also depends on surrounding factors. Let’s say one had came out of jail. He now face an undeciding future. Do he want to turn over a new leaf? His former friends may persuade him to go back to his crimes but those who cared for him may motivate him to have a brighter future. “When there’s a will, there’s a way”, it takes one’s resilience to succeed. Hence a leopard can change its spots.

Should We Divulge Our Secrets?

Secrets are important to one who possess it. Should we divulge our secrets? I feel that there are pros and cons for each individual. Some are more distressed after sharing their secrets while some are otherwise. personally, I feel that it can be relaxing to pour out our inner thoughts but according to the "Mind Your Body" of "The Straits Times section, sharing of some secrets is recommended but excessive sharing of secrets may lead to more stress. Also,we should always share secrets to those we trust, for he/she may betray you and spread those secrets around.
