Got Secrets?

"Every single person in this world has at least one secret that would break your heart. If we could just remember this, I think there would be a lot more compassion and tolerance in this world." Mississippi

This quote is a "secret" from this book...

(Incidentally, the "stains" on the cover are actually part of the design.)

"Post Secret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously, on one side of a postcard."

There are sad secrets...
And funny secrets...
Unsettling secrets...
And sweet secrets...
When I first found the Post Secret website, I found it so compelling that I stayed up til midnight (and later) on Saturday nights, waiting for Frank to post the weekly sampling of secrets. I went to Barnes and Noble and found the books, reading one from cover to cover and hoping to find one of the rumored "bonus" secrets that people sometimes tuck into bookstore copies. Eventually, I bought the book pictured above. After reading it, I took it to work and discreetly passed it around to a handful of friends I figured would appreciate it. (They did.)

A few weeks later, the book found its way back to me. There was a Post-It note in it, so naturally, I opened the book to that page, and here's what I found....

The note says, "I think I found your secret!!"


I also found this.

(For the record, no; those aren't my secrets, and I almost choked reading the Post-its! Too funny!!)

Got a secret just burning to get out? Send a postcard to Frank.

Or, for the quicker way, visit Georgie's Secret Confessions post and unload there :)
