Just a thought I'm having about all these secrets.  Why do we post them?  Why would we even want to?  Obviously they're about self-realization. It's one thing to suspect something of ourselves, it's another to write it out in indelible ink (or pixels).  I think most of us get that. But why share it? The reactions to the secrets are what I find interesting.  The secrets aren't about forgiveness or absolution.  No one is asking to be fixed. For the viewer of the secrets, maybe we just hope to produce a moment of amusement or camaraderie, but even greater than either, the hope that it might spark a moment of self-reflection in others.  I gauge my reaction to each and every secret, very interested to see what they reveal about me.  And so far, it's been fascinating.

We should start a comm for the *really* juicy secrets.  You know, that one you made but were too hesitant to post. :)
