There's a site called Post Secret. The idea behind it is that "PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a postcard."
Today, Sunday June 6, 2010 someone posted a postcard that said:
"I have lived in San Francisco since I was young. I am illegal. I am not wanted here. I don't belong anywhere. This summer I plan to jump off the Golden Gate."
A Facebook member saw it, and was so horrified that
I couldn't stand to just read it and navigate away from the page. So I figured I would start a group here in hope that they would see it and reconsider.
You can find the Facebook group here.
The fact that the group already has over 15,000 members is a heartwarming; the fact that so many people have posted ways of helping the original person, and others in a similar state of despair is a even more hopeful.
