I'm amazed at how often I can relate, at least in some way, to so many of the postcards on postsecret each week. And I'm reminded of how universal our feelings are. Do you visit? Does it make you feel like a voyeaur or like a participant?
Do you have a favorite each week? The scariest one this week (to me anyway and no, I can't relate to this at all) is the one that says, "I used to give my address to men online... Then I would unlock my apartment door... Just before going to bed."
That is so creepy and scary and wrong. Dangerous. And I have a feeling she still does it. Yikes.

I'm usually there Saturday nights, too. There's almost always at least one that I can relate to. Like today's. There are two.

Oh yes - I so look forward to the updates each week! And I do find that I can relate to many of them...although others just make my jaw drop in disbelief. There's one currently posted that I think rates as "worst ever" in my book - I'm sure you'll see it too, it's the one with the picture of the bunk beds. :(

I saw that one, and the email that follows it. Apparently, it's not as uncommon as we'd hope. Eeww.

I wasn't aware of this site until your post. I've just had a quick scan of some of the posts, and I'm wondering whether it's going to be funny, scary or show up the mentality of some people. I've bookmarked it, and will make my judgement after a few visits. You're right about the post you qouted, it's sick.

I'm a writer. Sites like this are invaluable to me as studies of human psychology. My husband got me the first Postsecret book for my birthday last year. Fascinating stuff.

I visit it almost every Sunday that I can and am just fascinated by some of the secrets.

I do.
Apart from I can identify with some of the secrets, I also find it amazing how people come up with creative ways of expressing their feelings through the post cards.

i visit postsecret.blogspot.com every single sunday morning when i wake up, before i even get out of bed. i feel more like a participant than a voyeaur as i have previously sent in two messages (which were not posted on the site). I can realte to so many of the secrets and my heart aches for the really sad ones. im so glad frank started this website, when i read it i feel less alone in the world. I know there are people who feel the same as i do sometimes. That secret was the scarriest one ive ever read, scribbler, i really hope she does not do that anymore. I also really hope that none of the men she gave her address to had taken her up on her offer.
