Today, is Sunday. Sunday is the day that one of my favorite sites, Postsecret, posts a collection of secrets that people send in anonymously about their lives to a man named Frank Warren.
I have a secret admiration for these people. Those souls who have enough courage to take and send there secret into uncertainty and let it be released from their being, hopefully making them feel better about themselves and whatever they chose to share with others. I find reading through these secrets to be very comforting because every so often I find one, or more, that I myself relate to. It offers a sort of serenity to me to know I am not alone, that I am not odd or weird, and that someone out there feels like I do about something, no matter how silly or obscure the secret is.
There are books published with hundreds of people's secrets in them, and though I don't own any of those books yet, I hope to start to buy them soon. I think releasing secrets anonymously like all these people do, offers some sort of hope for humanity. I really thank Frank Warren for offering people an outlet to share a piece of themselves, whether hurtful or just a happy sliver of their life that they wish to share with another soul.
Sometimes secrets can hurt but sometimes they can offer someone a helping hand and that's exactly what Postsecret does for people.
Please check out the site. Remember, secrets are updated every Sunday. I'll leave you with a link.

Remember people, you aren't alone in how you feel. Somewhere, someone else feels exactly like you do.
