Some Secrets are Better Left Unsaid

Have you ever been to the a href=”http://postsecret.blogspot.com/#113665474075194303″website Postsecrets.com/a? It’s an interesting site where people send in their secrets on a postcard to Frank, a guy in Maryland who puts them on his site. He also has a book,a href=”http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=as2path=ASIN/0060899190tag=wwwviolentkicomcamp=1789creative=9325″em PostSecret : Extraordinary Confessions from Ordinary Lives,/em/aimg src=”http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=wwwviolentkicoml=as2o=1a=0060899190″ width=”1″ height=”1″ border=”0″ alt=”” style=”border:none !important; margin:0px !important;” /which I bought for someone as a gift. I know this site is popular, but if I had a secret to write in to him, it would be that I really hate some of the secrets he shares! Some of the secrets are so downright pathetic and cruel that frankly, I wonder about the morals of some of the authors of these little gems. For example, one postcard read, “It makes me very happy when I hear about a hunter accidentally getting killed while hunting, wish it would happen more often.” Charming. Another postcard reads, “I gave a child up for adoption 25 years ago. She found me. I wish to God I had had the abortion instead.” Of course, some of the secrets people send in are sweet and sincere or just disturbing but not morally bankrupt. Check it out if you have not been to the site. It is rather interesting.
