    Indeed, I thought so. Very moving in a unique, vulnerable way.

    Figured the idea and the openness and the way some of these were written qualified the site as poetry... and what better place to share it?

    My work designates your link as a chat room and therefore I am unable to view. :(

    Funny how this site passes the security measures...YAY for that! :D

    you should check it out at home if you can - it's a site where people send postcards with secrets on them - it's sort of sad, yet empowering...when you think about it.

    it's a lovely site, where people share their deepest secrets by making homemade postcards with illustrations, and their confidences......but really, it's quite beautiful, because these secrets aren't axe-murder type shit......just humble secrets......like, for example, when a mother didn't defend her teenage son after she turned up her stereo to drown out the neighbour's noise, and the neighbour came out and harangued her son......she lives with that regret.....I guess you could say it's a poignant mix of regret and shame, things which thankfully, I've never had to feel.......

    (echo.....Yay!@!!! for that!!!!)
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
