Secrets

I read a post on Lisa Haneberg's blog a while back that discussed secrets. It included a link to this site, which I just find amazing and incredibly addicting. Seeing other peoples secrets makes me log-on first thing every Monday morning and go straight to this site to see the latest updates.

We all have secrets. What is it about a secret that makes it so hard to keep? As soon as we have one, we want to share it. And as soon as we know someone has one, we want to hear it. Post Secret, and the four books (I warn you in advance, you will not be able to put them down) that Frank has published, prove that we love to learn other peoples secrets.

More than that, I believe we are looking to learn that we are not the only person keeping our personal secrets. Everyone needs to feel like they belong. Possibly even with their deepest secrets.

So, I encourage you to check out the site, and to stop in to your local bookstore to check out a copy of the books. Maybe, you will find the same thing that Donna and I did when we stopped to read a copy at Borders.
Just like the video shows, people had placed notes with their secrets in between the pages of the books filled with secrets. What an amazing project.



I guess everyone really does love knowing, and telling, a secret.
