There were so many fantastic postsecrets from the selection today - go and check them out for yourself www.postsecret.blogspot.com. The first secret I chose resonated with me as something I feel about someone saying sorry to me and saying sorry to others. 'I'm sorry' really isn't enough a lot of the time, it can be thrown around with little sincerity when really actions speak louder than words. If you want to say sorry I think the best way to do it is to show someone that you truly are sorry. The second secret really made me smile - for some reason it reminds me of 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' when they steal masks from a toy shop. I think we would all love to find that one person you don't have to conform with. The third secret is something I have been considering lately, whether to forgive and forget? I am quite a forgiving person - I tend to want to put things behind me and just move on but at some point when someone continues to hurt you it is time to put yourself first - and what better gift really? The last secret is something I have felt for a long time about postsecret and now something I can relate to my own blog. I have felt for a long time that postsecret is like a community offering help to a group of people with a shared secret - because although the secrets are all different they are all secrets. This feeling has since been transfered to my own secret making, I have been able to give myself a much needed release and almost allow myself to let go of each of the secrets created. Sorry for the massively long post today, let me know which secret spoke to you. Enjoy!

The one about the Golden Gate Bridge is so moving. I walked across it once and didn't at all realise what it could mean to people. Not sure whether that's a good or bad thing.
