How much of my personal experience should I tell the world?

RE: How much of my personal experience should I tell the world?
You will always be blind to certain parts of yourself. You will always have parts that are just yours privately. You will always have a public version of yourself to share with others. There will always be parts of you that you don't see but others do. Look up Johari's window. People can't know you if you choose not to reveal anything, but you might not want them to know you or to know them. It's completely up to you who you let in and why and how that benefits you. If you are dependent on others for the basic necessities of life, I'd be more focused on achieving more independence and less worried about who or what I share with.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
