tragedies."
tragedies."
Like thousands of people around the world, I visit Post Secret every Sunday to read the latest confessions of men and women. I never really knew the significance of reading the secrets of strangers until last night.
Yesterday, I was up into the wee hours of the night reading a Post Secret book that my sister got for Christmas. There were several instances when I'd read a postcard and nearly cried thinking, My God...that's exactly how I feel.
That I realized was, even though the secrets are from anonymous strangers from God knows where, I was comforted. When you read someone else's feelings or experiences that mirror your own, it lessons the pain. It helps to know that you're not alone.
I took pictures of the secrets that I identified with the most. I hope this isn't copyright infringement.
If you're brave enough to tell, what's your secret?

My favorites: the one about him being gone for two yrs and she is still lost and "I'll never forgive you for not picking me."
But let's see my own?
