Secret Lives of Men and Women

FOUND by Emily in Lancaster, Pennsylvania

I found this in a Barnes and Noble, carefully tucked between the pages of The Secret Lives of Men and Women (a Postsecret book). I held my breath as I opened it, thinking I had somehow stubbled across a secret; a private look at the secret life of someone in my own town. It wasn’t what I expected it to be, but I’m not convinced that I was wrong.

FOUND by Monica Minier in Lancaster, Pennsylvania

I found this letter folded up and laying in the gutter beside my car. I think it’s heartbreaking. Obviously Ashley is unhappy, but afraid to voice her unhappiness about the situation for fear of losing Brandon. They probably had a fight the night before, then she felt guilty and left him this note for the morning. Hopefully he didn’t read it and toss it out his car window, but that was probably the case. I love the last line, “Don’t get in too much trouble today.” It definitely adds an air of mystery and danger to the whole thing. I love this note and have been carrying it around in my car for about 3 months, hopefully you enjoy it, too.

Paper Jam

FOUND by Sean S. in Rockville, Maryland

I found this 8 1/2 x 11 paper jammed in a copy machine at work. It makes me wonder why somebody would print this out when they could just as easily ask to have something repeated. There was another sheet with it reading “Please speak louder.” What on earth was this person doing? Perhaps the person was hearing impaired, but she heard me just fine.
