Concealment of what is said or done.

Thanks, Billy. That's a beautiful definition, let's break it down.

Things said and done are finished. They happened. They exist and are not subject to cosmic erasure. To conceal is intentional and premeditated. Concealment is not a granted right, it is not a default, it is not a given. It is a chore, and to expect it is to live in self-deceptive isolation.
