My Post Secret

In my post secret I claimed that I would, "give up all expectations in order to become a famous flying trapeze artist". In my "secret" I used a picture of a flamboyant and stereotypical trapeze artist in a flashy costume to portray how absurd the idea of being a circus performer is to the normal, everyday person and even how absurd it is to me to have such a far-fetched dream. From what i observed, the class understood how my "secret" was valid due to the fact that being a trapeze artist isn't neccessarily a revered career and how i could be ashamed of such a dream.

Nobody knew that the trapeze artist wasn't performing correctly, but once you mentioned it the meaning of your card changed a little. I liked this because most of the class had straightforward secrets without any hidden meanings, while you had a special connection with your postcard that only you initially knew about.
