So i got this idea, partly inspired by Postsecret partly by some inner musings about LYING cause everyone does it, some people like to, some deny it but it doesn't really make a difference.

I thought this could be a place where people can submit art anonymously or not, or even email me, or straight out post here, sharing their secrets, and to make it more interesting, post 1 secret, 1 lie.... sometimes you might find that the "lie" you've been telling all this time is true, sometimes a secret can turn into lying to yourself but either way, your secret's safe with me. send emails to Lsecretkeeper@yahoo.com


POST ONE SECRET, ONE LIE- comments are enabled, and you can be anonymous if you like



NEW NEW NEW!!!!!!!! I'm so glad to get so many responses!!!!!!!!!!! here they are:


Secret: He's on vacation, I'm using this week as practice for what it's going to be like when college starts.

Lie: No, mom. That one time, I did not wash my hands.



The only person that I've ever fallen madly in love with was a character in a book. (its a movie too, but I fell in love while reading the book) I cried at the knowledge that Schmendrick wasn't real, and that I would never get to read about him again. BLAST YOU BEAGLE!

I am completely over you. I think that you and her will last forever. We were so not meant for each other. Nope. Not at all.



Secret: All I want is to be loved by a guy for who I am. Everything else can be worried about later.

Secret:
I could've done so many things different to better where I am at in my life now, mentally and physically.

I don't regret any of it.

The thought of commitment scares me.
I cheated because I was bored.



Secret: I'm disgusted that I was born different.
Lie: I think one day I'll get over it.



Secret: When I can't sleep, in order to clear my head, I sing the Barney song. You know "I love you, you love me..."

First and foremost in this post I have to thank the PostSecret Community and the message boards there as a forum where people shared their secrets & lies. Everything that appears here has been oked by the author for me to display.


So many people responded, and I commend each and every person for their bravery and honesty (yes, even though we are talking about lies.) I think its great!!!

my secrets & lies are also mixed in :)


Secret: I'm lying.
Lie: I'm completely comfortable with the person that I am.


Secret: I love a boy with all my heart
Lie: I love my father



Secret: I know you're destroying your life. I know you just had his baby and all, but you would be so much better if you tried everything on your own. I can't tell you this, because everytime I try, you get angry.
Lie: I'm happy for you.


secret: I 'm better--I'm changed, & I regret what I did.
lie: I don't regret anything i did; i regret that i got caught.



s:I HATE looking at myself in the mirror with other people around.
l:I tell people (and act like) I'm completely happy with myself.



1 secret: I'm jealous of a lot of my friends.
1 lie: I am happy with the choices my brother is making



Secret: I care about things more than anyone knows. I even feel bad about killing bugs. I hate hurting anything.
Lie: My eyes are the one thing that I dont like about my body.
(Truth is, they are the only thing I like).



one secret - i've just thought long and hard about a secret that i haven't told anyone yet, and nothing comes to mind. that scares me, that i might not have anymore secrets left to share.
one lie - it wasn't about the money.


Secret - I wish I would be diagnosed with body dismorphia, just so I would know that what I see in the mirror isn't really me.
Lie - I like food too much to ever have an eating disorder.

Secret: I'd never kill myself. But sometimes I wish I'd just never wake up.
Lie: I'm okay, I promise.


Secret- I could get lost in your eyes so easily, but I don't let myself.
Lie- I love hospitals.

Secret: I'm absolutely terrified that my autistic brother will never grow up and be able to live a normal life.
Lie: I never think about cutting anymore.

And we're back!

To be honest, I get a bit discouraged sometimes because the most email I end up getting is all spam mail. for example:

"FROM THE DESK OF MR.PAUL ZULU.
Attention: Sir/Madam,

I am MR.PAUL ZULU the Director in charge of auditing and accounting section of a prime bank in Ouagadougou Burkina-Faso West-Africa with due respect and regard. I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end of the transaction.

During our investigation and auditing in this bank, my department came across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person Mr. Morris Thompson from America who is an oil merchant Agent here in ouagadougou burkina faso, a well known Philanthropist before his death in a plane crash on February 4, 2000. both wife Thelma Thompson and daughter Sheryl Thompson. Please for more details concerning him and how he died, you can visit this website: www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines.list

The said amount was U.S $15.5M (Fifteen million five hundred United States dollars). As it may interest you to know, I got your impressive information through from a human resource profile database in the chamber here in Ouagadougou Burkina-Faso. Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the bona fide next of kin to the deceased, to get the required approval and transfer this money to a foreign account has been put in place and directives, and needed information will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist me and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity.

In fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country as a civil servant (A Banker), we are not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer because I work in this bank. This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin with affidavit of trust of oath to the Bank and also present a foreign account where he will need the money to be re-transferred into on his request as it may be after due verification and clarification by the correspondent branch of the bank where the whole money will be remitted from to your own designation bank account.

I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 20% of the total sum as gratification, while 70% will be for me and 10% map out for any expenses. Please, you have been advised to keep "top secret" as I am still in service and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal. I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask me to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment, either in your country or any country you advice us to invest in. All other necessary vital information will be sent to you when I hear from you.

Thank you for your understanding as await your urgent response to enable me give you more details. Please reply so that i can know you very well before i go ahead with you.

Remain bless,
Mr Paul Zulu.

POST SCRITUM:
You have to keep everything secret as to enable the transfer to move very smoothly in to the account you will prove to the bank.If however, you are not disposed to assist,kindly delete/destroy this email in view of the confidentiality of the proposed transaction and interest of personalities involved."


Of course this is a scam, and I'm not falling for it, but i was really amused by the last lines in the POST SCRITUM. "You have to keep everything secret as to enable the transfer to move very smoothly in to the account you will prove to the bank."




EVEN SPAM MAIL TALKS ABOUT SECRETS!!! and its obviously a lie... Great tie in.


so the sparse amounts of email I have that are NOT spam:

dont do this to me. dont let me turn into one of those cat ladies. WITHOUT YOU I AM ALONE

1. i have never believed you!!!
2. i want to SO BADLY

Everything in my life has fallen beautifully into place. I sometimes wonder how long it can last.

noones perfect and who wants to be anyways im tired of seeing 50 pound "perfect"models i dont want to live up to that

'sharing your feelings' my guy friends would laugh at me for this.





I really encourage EVERYONE to post comments here, send emails, whatever.

Sorry guys!!!! I've been advertising about "anonymous comments" and I didn't realize this wasn't even an option until i received an email in regards to this. I fixed the problem, and now you can comment away, anonymously or otherwise!!!

Keep checking back for more secrets, lies, updates
