Secrets

In
2004,
Frank Warren
printed 3000 self-
addressed postcards,
inviting people to
share their
secrets
.

Here is the first
PostSecret I ever saw

Since then,
Frank has recieved
over half a million
Post Cards
!!!

I’ve been subscribing
to his weekly collections
for about 8 years
.

Some of them are frivolous
and fun and creative
and colorful
:

Other secrets
touch my heart

When I see a card like that,
I feel bad about deleting it
.
Is that strange
???

-=< O >=-

For some reason,
I feel like I am honoring
that person’s secret
by saving it
.

So recently,
I revisited the folder
where I have been saving
these secrets, and
discovered over
1200
!!!

Seeing them again
inspired me to share
some here
.

I’m
not sure
how I feel about
teachers coercing secrets
from their students
.

but this one
brought a smile
to my face
:

We bear the pain of others

and share missed opportunities…

…but every now and then,
we’re gifted with healing
