The Secret of Secrets

Once upon a time, an ancient squirrel came to the big secrets and said, "You are mighty, you are colossal, you will be easily spotted. Do one of the two - either hide really well, so that no one can see you, or conversely, be everywhere, at every moment, in every corner. In both cases - no one will know about you, and your great secret will be kept".

The big secrets were perplexed. Which option should they choose? Although there was initial disagreement among them, they quickly understood that they had no real choice. They are not small, they are not agile, how could they manage to hide from so many different animals going to so many different and strange places? Hence, they chose the second option, to be everywhere, all the time. That way, even if by chance you notice that they are here, others would think you're mad. No one would believe you, because how come no one else noticed?

If the big secrets had chosen to hide, it would be possible to take someone and say 'Look, behind that playground slide there is a big secret burrowing in the sand,' but it's not possible because they are also behind the playground slide, and right here, both above and below.

For many, many years, the big secrets have been hiding in plain sight. To uncover them, one must simply pay attention to the here and now. And when you stumble upon a big secret, draw near, for it will gently and truly whisper in your ear: The biggest secrets are the most apparent ones. That is the secret of secrets.
