I opened PostSecret this morning and I think “well thats relatable – I hate Christmas too”
Then “wait, that’s my handwriting — I made that secret!” I sent that postcard many years ago. So strange that it wasn’t postmarked.
Over the years, I have sent you 5 postcards, and you have now published all 5. I feel incredibly seen and I thank you for that. I still hate Christmas for many reasons and that’s not going to change. Skipping the holiday season is not an option but I would in a heartbeat. I am hosting a brunch today for 14 people and I will put on my happy face and make the next 11 days magical for everyone.
I can’t wait for December 26 when I can take down all these decorations and stop pretending.

Sunday Secrets

While reading the secrets this early Sunday morning, I came across one that I connected with me instantly – the postcard about you (Frank) never receiving the sender secret and that they are the only one who knows about it.
I’ve had that question on my mind a lot very recently. I myself have sent you at least a ‘few’ secrets over the last 2 decades since I first met you at a bookstore signing in NYC around 2006. Like many others, I have never seen them get posted as I’m sure you get thousands weekly. It makes me wonder if my own postcards just fall through the cracks of the postal system or do they actually get to you. In addition, I think about who may see my postcard while on its journey to you and what they may think or react to reading them, if they read them at all.
I love postsecret and the community it has created for so many to connect with others & be open and honest with themselves. I guess for some of us, especially me, the release or letting go of our secrets into the world (anonymously via postcard) doesn’t always mean we are releasing ourselves from the secret.
We just want someone to tell it to and not all of us have that someone.
It really sucks when you have no one to be turn to or talk to and feel the only way you may be heard and/or not judged is by sending secrets via the postal mail.
So in anonymity, I say to that secret sharer: I may not know your secret but I hear you and see your secret. I hope we both can share our secrets in the future.

It says:
“I have kept the last 2.5 pills in this bottle on my dresser since 2005
to remind me of where I’m not.”
Thank you for all that you do.
