This is the best PostSecret I’ve ever read. I wish I had a voice mail from my grandmother.
If you can’t read it it says:
“I continue to save a voicemail from my grandmother. i listen every day. hearing her voice reminds me that I’m not alone. she dies 2 and a half years ago.”

I have three voicemails my 34 year old cousin left me on my cell phone before she died of ovarian cancer over three years ago. In 3 years I will be older than she was when she died and my goal is to keep those voicemails until then. Maybe I’ll keep them forever.

I work for a major cell phone carrier. About once a year we hear of a story where someone is desperately hanging on to a voicemail from a lost loved one. We will put a hard copy of a voicemail from a lost loved one in your hands if you ask. It could be the greeting on their phone or a message they left on yours. We want you to have those memories. Please ask.

Too Shy to Stop writers Sam Harvey and Ariela Rose recently collaborated on an article about PostSecret. Writer Christine Barrett also submitted original photos of postcards from her classmates at Salem College. You can read the article here.
Feel free to leave a comment on the article or take a look around Too Shy to Stop while you’re there!
