1. kicking this because

What do you think?

2. Thank you, wildhorses.

I visited the postsecret site a few months ago and fell in love with it. I'm not convinced that the posts are 100 percent "real" but I love the concept, anyway. Thank you for reminding me! :thumbsup: :pals:

(That site always reminds me of the Leonard Cohen song, "In My Secret Life." Do you know it?)

3. good song...

somehow I knew you would appreciate this site...and yes, I think some of the secrets are contrived. Some however, are just hauntingly sad. Then there are the ones where I am smiling and then I am laughing out loud. It was perhaps a better site in its earlier stages, I agree. :thumbsup:

4. I'm so glad

you're part of the DU family, wildhorses. I love art of all sorts to an extent that you wouldn't believe. :thumbsup:

9. Wow!

I think it's cathartic and so helpful to others on many levels. I answer calls on the Hopeline Network at the crisis center I work at. I am glad that this site/concept/person is working to raise money and awareness for it.

12. I find this site depressing

because there are hardly ever any good secrets - just shitty things people have done to each other
