I wanted to post a link to The Secret Postcards. I'm sure some of you have heard of it before.

Frank Warren came up with the idea and started receiving secrets in 2005. Since then he's received and published thousands of secrets in his postcard books, online, and in museum exhibits.

Some of the secrets are actually quite eye-opening. I think the whole thing is a testament to honesty. We are all subject to the same humanity; we are all capable of the same things. Yet, we still stay separated and secluded even from the ones we love. Why are we so frightened to share what is common to all? It's amazing to see how that seclusion affects us and how badly we really do need honesty. This project provides a very unique way to access that essential need to speak and speak honestly.
