Truth Is...Week 2 (11/9/2014)

I didn't get too many new responses this week.  This is a continuing project looking at the truth we hide.  The project needs to be moved as I think we have become static in our present location at a local college.  I took it down and will relocate it this week.

Truth is...

...I didn't want to go to college but if I don't I have to move out

...I got a passing grade in a class I hated because I gave the teacher a blowjob.

...I steal stuff to buy drugs

...I never make any effort at school and I pass everything.

...I have sex for fun, I never want to have kids.

...I am addicted to porn

...I saw a rape committed, she never reported it and neither did I.

...I don't like my kids, they drive me nuts

...I am very good at pickpocketing

...I hate white people

...I hate my wife's cooking, and she is a rotten housekeeper.  She is great in the sack.

...I was glad when my parents got divorced.

The Truth Is...




The truth is that we all carry secrets, this project and the blog post is an anonymous catharsis for those secrets.  Confession can set us free.  Secrets can be poison, can make us feel like a fraud, it can eat us alive, they can be a horrible burden.  We are so afraid that if people our secrets that would never love us or be our friends.  The fact is, and I hope to illustrate this with this blog, that we all have secrets.  Some will make you profoundly sad, take your breath away and some you may relate to in a personal way.

The source of the confessions is a display I have developed where people may read about the Truth Is project, read previous confessions and anonymously fill out a Truth Is tag and drop it in a box, adding to the display.  I may post where the display will be from time to time.  You may also decide to send those to me electronically, confidentiality is at the heart of the project, that should go without saying (but I said it anyway).
