Secrets

Today I found a PostSecret that could have been mine. 


I often read secrets and empathize with the person, think "yeah I know what they mean," that kind of thing. Those are for things that are kind of annoying (like worrying about grabbing a bowl from the top shelf and finding a spider in it) or something silly (like wearing cool socks and hoping someone will see them).


I don't have very many real secrets... But this was one of them. Exactly. It was a pretty big surprise; it probably shouldn't have been, if I'd ever thought about it, but the fact is I never have thought about anyone else having that same secret. It was both comforting and saddening to know that I'm not the only one.


I wish I could post it here, but it's not a secret I'm ready to share. And I'm not going to tell you where I saw it, because I think some of you would be able to figure it out if you knew where to look. :)
