I was at a Borders in Ohio this afternoon when I decided to read the newest PostSecret book. I discovered that a secret written on note paper had been tucked into the book. The secret said:

I just read this with the woman I love. I hope she doesn't get away.

I left the secret in the book, on the shelf on the off chance that she comes back and happens to find it. I hope she does.

I received the following message from Reese Butler, Founder of HopeLine, this morning. . .

Frank -
This was unbelievable. What a great effort and response. The comments are so profound and caring. Some made the donation and asked that the book be sent directly to someone else as a gift. Some who lost loved ones to suicide and thought this would be a healing gesture. It is truly heart warming and amazing to read each one.

I am an avid postsecret fan - checking every Sunday with my fiance, even attended a live show in Peoria - and recently saw your response to a woman's message about her feelings of sadness and helplessness. I think your hopeline is such a great thing. I am happy that both you and Frank Warren have found your calling - happy for you, but mostly happy for those lives you impact, and, ultimately save.

I just saw your message on PostSecret about responding to non crises. Is there any way that I could help with this by volunteering and taking calls? I'd absolutely love to help out! Thank you!
