So, the Post Secret book...it's some crazy stuff.
I'm not sure how many of you have seen this coffee table/art book but if you haven't here its is:
A guy named Frank Warren came up with the concept.
He asked people to decorate a postcard with a secret they had and send it to him anonymously.
The only caveat was that the secrets had to be truthful and they had to be something they had never told anyone before.
He got thousands of postcards
Some of them are funny:
Apparently the person who sent this in is afraid of women who wear capris.
And this one:
It was sent in by someone who still talks to her stuffed animals even though she is in college.
A lot of them had to do with church:
Mostly how much the people don't want to go.
These kind of annoyed me. They kind of make me want to scream:
"Newsflash. You're a grown up now. Don't go."
Many of them are really sad:
This one says:
"I hate every part of my body (except my hands.)"
Have I mentioned lately how much I love my feet?
And some of them?
Well, they hit a little too close to home.
So, you should probably send him a postcard:
And then go get some counseling.

Man, I should have thought of this. No writing skills involved but make a bundle off of a book. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteThats so true, Kelly!
ReplyDeleteThere are four books now; I have a secret in one of them. I don't check the website as often as I used to, but I always loved how many things I thought were a "secret" are apparently things shared by a lot of people.
ReplyDeletekc, The fact that so many people struggle silently when so many others have the same issues are one of the things that make the books so sad.
