Personal Reflections on the Secrets of Others

Post Secret is a delightful mish-mash of personal secrets released anonymously for the viewing public. Contributors express their inner-most secrets in the form of a postcard, and send it to the Post Secret address for the possibility to be posted on the blog (http://postsecret.blogspot.com)
The postcards are artistic and often provocative or emotional.

I think the power of Post Secret lies in two things: 1) The universal desire to share and learn about others' most personal affairs, and 2) The ability of so many of us to relate to the experience of others.

This blog will focus on the latter. I will relate the stories I have learned through my own experience and the experiences of others as a reflection or extension of a selection of Post Secret submissions.
