Confessing your heart on a dollar bill

Here is a dollar bill that was found in Chicago and posted to foundmagazine.com.

It’s amazing how someone spills her heart onto a dollar bill. A public item. But then at some point you have to actually hand your heart’s voice over to someone. Do you pretend like it’s not your writing? What if you continually write on dollar bills and hand them over to the same cashier? (it’s a bit creepy, but could make for an interesting short film).

Then there’s the website postsecret.blogspot.com where you can write whatever you want onto a postcard and then anonymously snail mail it to the website owners.

It makes me sad that people feel the need to divulge their deep dark secrets on a postcard, when the most effective way to pray to God about it. If you just ask Him for help, He will help you. I’m all for creating items with mysterious back stories for people to find and think about. But when it comes for my own personal therapy, there is none better than prayer.
