Postsecret: 50 people asked, What is your secret?

Shepppardsays...

Man, in the spirit of the video, I've got one.

I'd never share it in real life because of how hard it is.

But.. throughout grade 1-9, I learned that one of my best friends father had Hep. C..
but my friend didn't know. And I couldn't tell him.

His dad thought it best to leave the family so he and his brother wouldn't have to be as heartbroken if he didn't get a liver transplant, and so the family got a divorce.

And I still couldn't tell him.

That secret has taken its toll on me over the years.. I'm not sure I'll ever get over it.

Wow. High quality and powerful editing.

The one chick who talks way too much about her grandpa or whatever though could have been cut without losing anything, since that one is rather anti-climactic... The whole time I was just thinking, "uhmm.. ookay, get to the point already." Then by the end, it was a huge fucking letdown. Maybe I'm a heartless bastard, or maybe she's way too narcissistic to have been included in this video. Maybe a little of both.

However, I'd still upvote twice if I could.

That couple around the 4 minute mark is so fucking in love. Just look at the way they look at each other... it's beautiful. I've had someone look at me like that once. It's the best feeling in the world.

Yeah, I love the split seconds they show of their reactions to each others' secrets. Especially his to her secret.

Damn I want one of these DSLRs, they shoot such incredibly beautiful video. I just don't have a few spare grand lying around.

Really, they make what would be mundane shots on other cameras look superb and professional.

*sigh*

Abel_Prisc: same reaction here.

Spoco: glad you thought of this as it was the first thing that came to mind before the movie actually started. I have one of these cameras and if you use the right lens it can really make a mundane situation look really beautiful.

joopsays...

I loved the girl who's secret was that all the books her partner couldn't read were full of love poems about him. That's an amazing secret to share

I hope he proposed then and there if they weren't already married/engaged!

I thought it started out with pretty lame secrets, I guess I was expecting different kind of secrets, but it got better. A lot better
Really great idea, video and site.

Props to Shepppard for sharing that secret. It must be tough.
I have some secrets that I've never told anyone but I don't dare to share them here. I'm not brave like Shepppard

Are there really people with no secrets like the first few people who say they don't have any?

buzzsays...

"I'm a lot better before you know me."
That's the one that got me...

There was a video made a few years ago (I think by the same guys). It was basically a "slideshow" of their postcards, but I couldn't find it on the site.

Anyone got any ideas?

EDIT: Actually scratch that, if you google there's million. I'm sure I can find the one I was thinking of

Mashikisays...

The entire video was brilliant, yeah that kinda hits you and I was rather sorry to see it over. Everyone has a secret. Some are terrible and dark, others are soft. Some people can't come forward and say to another person because of fear.

I have one, but that's my own.

kymbossays...

Wicked. There used to be a site called 'notproud.com' that had people confess on the seven deadly sins. It was and remains the best site I have ever seen. The things that people were not proud of were truly amazing. I like postsecret, but notproud was a cut above. I was crushed when it closed.

fjulessays...

Oh wow, these are not real secrets. There was a 4chan thread about posting secrets and most of them were something along the lines "I cum in my sisters tea" or "I once fucked a horse", or something about rape. Now those are real secrets!

laurasays...

My secrets are only secrets to people who wouldn't like them...
I do have an almost unhealthy obsession with doings things (everything really) 100% correctly 100% of the time...I've only gotten better with this over the years in the sense that I can forgive myself when I don't.
