Postsecret

As it says in my description, I love Postsecret. I am quite new to the site, having only discovered it a month or so ago, but was instantly hooked.
I was trying to work out the appeal. What is it that makes me so desperate to tune in every Sunday and read twenty secrets from strangers?
I think that this is it.
We all have a secret. And as we scroll the site we are thinking to ourselves, what would I send? Would it get posted? Would anyone care? And occasionally we read a secret and are struck by the similarity to our own lives. We like Postsecret because selfishly, we see people are worse off than us, but they are still going on.
The other thing that attracts me to Postsecret is the range of emotions. In twenty postcards you can see depression, shame, love, revenge, envy and nostalgia.
In short, check it out if you haven't, it is strangely addictive www.postsecret.com

My Tattoo

This is the new tattoo I got a few months ago. There is lots of symbolism behind it. It is a quill, to show my love of literature and English. There is also a lot of symbolism behind feathers, such as being able to fly away, have freedom and the like. It is almost exactly my design, a quill I drew a few months before. I know many people are against tattoos, and would see this as a flighty teenage mistake, but I couldn't have a more different view. This tattoo gives me strength, and I believe it always will. This is not something I rushed into, it is carefully thought out, both the design and the placement. I know not everyone approves of tattoos so I have it somewhere easy to hide if needed, a more private place. I love my tattoo, it means so very much to me.

I'm Glad I have Someone I feel this way about

This picture made me smile a lot. When I started dating my boyfriend, we had a joke that he often had to fight bears on the way home from my house, in a quiet English village. When you find something that reminds you of a memory, you want to share it.

I try to live my life by this...
