As I know who you are and since you are someone who knows me personally for many years, I think I can expect from you the kind of trust that I would not devulge anything that I know about you that is sensitive, personal and confidential.

YOu took assurance before in my promise of confidentility.

You can now take a greater assurance in the simple fact taht I wouldn't reveal things that would hurt you in any way.

If I appear before a Judge that's an entirely different story.

But other than that, whatever secret you have entrusted with me are safe from public view.

If however I somehow find out that you have molested children, for example, that is a whole different category.

I never heard that you have, and if you have please don't tell me, but if I knew that you did, it would almost kill me to reveal that info, and I don't know if I could, since we have been so close.

I am not a machine, I have feelings like everybody else, and I have the highest respect for people like yourself for the things you have done, as I have already told you before.

In a particular case like yourself, if I found out something like that, I don't even know how I could bring myself in making that info known. I may end up keeping it all covered up, I don't know.

I know I should report it to the aurhorities, but I am not pretending to be that impartial and that strong to go that far.

Anyway, that's a different subject and we will cross that river if and when we get to it, but for now what I remember as confidential between you and me is a matter that needs not to be reveiled.
