Skeletons are usually buried for a reason
So unless you’re an archaeologist or a paleontologist, buyer beware! If there’s no really good reason, let sleeping dogs lie.
skeletons
Damn it would be super interesting to dig old skeletons , I would defenetly do it just to see wat I find…………..
Think of it this way...
…what about the person you’re keeping these skeletons from. If you were in their place, would you want to know about them. Skeletons come up, whether you want them to or not, but it’s important to realize that your past is part of what makes you who you are, and the people in your life deserve the full picture of you - not just the aspects you choose to show them. In most cases, you would want the same from others, and wouldn’t feel great about secrets someone else kept from you. It’s best to be honest and to be fair.

I don’t have any skeletons, thus no worries. Ha.
Get those demons out!!
Skeletons in the closet may as well be a bologna and hard boiled egg sandwich; They sure as hell don’t get better when left to fester in the dark. Better to get the issues resolved so life can be lived fearlessly. Besides, as Shakespeare said, “the truth will out.” Better it be on your own terms, right?
I'd do it
Although I probably would regret it in the end I am all down for digging up them skeletons,
Digging em up
Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do…
how do you feel about skeletons?
They should stay in the closet if they aren’t causing immediate issues.
I think the past should stay
I think the past should stay the past
Digging up past skeletons
Bones should be left them to lie especially when they are your own!!
