qosSomeone asked:
On Friends. . . A friend asks you to keep a secret. You agree. Does the promise to keep the secret survive the friend's death?
Yes - unless the friend specifically said that death would release me from my promise.
That said, there could be situations when I would consider it appropriate to break the promise -- but there would have to be a specific and compelling reason, such as the welfare of someone important to my friend. "It doesn't matter anymore" is not a good reason.
On LiveJournal. . . are you addicted? Either way, what does LiveJournal add to your life?
Yes, I'm addicted. Most of my best friends today are people I first met on LJ.
LJ has enabled me to meet and share the lives of wonderful, fascinating people I never would have known otherwise.
My LJ friends offered sympathy and cheer through years of flooding basements, Miss V, the Upstairs Dramas, and the death of my love. My LJ friends have shared my spiritual journey and gifted me with their own wisdom and experience. They've shared their own trials and challenges and triumphs, their poetry, icons, LOL's, and book and movie reviews.
Without LJ there would be no![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
_storyteller_ and no uncrowned_king, which means my life would be unimaginably different. There would be no oakmouse and so an entirely different priestess path. No kateri_thinks sharing Wicked and going to Florida. . . . And the list goes on.
