I'll keep you.

I love PostSecret. I have spent many hours with friends flipping though the pages of the books with a myriad of different emotions depending on the secrets reveled.

My favorite secret ever was sent in by a teenager who worked a Lego Land. Their secret was that their favorite part of their job was to destroy the children's creations at the end of every day.

When I read this, at first I was so shocked at the meanness of it, but then the more I tell the story, the funnier I find it! That horrible satisfaction that the Lego Land pleb must have felt reminds me of when I was a birthday party host at a bowling alley. DO NOT JUDGE! It was my first job, and I think I only lasted about 6 weeks before the managers and I come to the sensible decision that perhaps a career in retail was far more suited to my personality than that of looking after a group of children. Nothing would thrill me more than watching that one obnoxious child miss every single bowling pin on their turn. It was a horrible thrill and one that I feel very ashamed of now that I do actually have tolerance for children.

With more PostSecret books to be published and the roadshow in the US, there is now this little promo video. I love it, maybe even more so than the books. To actually see the emotion of the people as they tell their secret is amazing. You cant help but feel so many different things while watching it. I love the honestly of everyone. Even the spiteful, self serving, boastful guy towards the end

I'd love to have the courage to be able to reveal something if I were to be put in this kind of situation. Alas, I don't think I would be brave enough or open enough to actually go though with it.
