OU TORAH Walls Have Ears By Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb

We all have our secret lives. I don’t mean to say that each of us has a sinister side, which we wickedly act out in some deep, dark, private world. What I do mean is that we all act differently when we are alone, or with a few close intimates, than we act when we are out in public, among others. There is no one who is so behaviorally consistent that he is the same person in the privacy of his own home as he is in the workplace or marketplace. Nor do I suggest that there is anything wrong with the fact that we each are two persons, and perhaps even multiple persons, depending upon the social context in which we find ourselves.
