On Sundays I navigate my browser to postsecret.com to read the artful postcards people have mailed in. I have done this for the past few years fairly religiously. I own one of the post secret books. I read ps.com for a variety of reasons. Every postcard has a secret written on it. I read them out of curiosity, for the shock value, and for the occasional clever gems that crop up. Mostly I go because I want to see my secrets appear on the screen. I haven’t sent in a postcard (yet) but to see one of my secrets appear would mean that I’m not alone in my suffering, my confusion or my joy.

The creator of postsecret has created a video for the project: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6rTkp1dek4.

Unfortunately this means there are no new postcards on his blog this week. Perhaps I should use this as an opportunity to create my own – or as they say in the convenience stores, “Take a penny, give a penny.”
