Postsecret review 7

Since I was quite late with the last one, this one I decided to get to a little earlier (sort of).

"I only order food for delivery when I'm LONELY. Sometimes, that 5 seconds I bond with the delivery driver is the only human interaction I get that day." Firstly, I'm not exactly sure I'd call a 5 second interaction with a food delivery person a 'bonding' experience. But that's just me. Maybe there are other people out there who feel like they bond with food delivery drivers. Secondly, although it isn't in person interaction, with the internet these days, millions of people to talk to are literally at your fingertips. Try an online dating website or something (just kidding).

"I am a social worker who voted for Trump" (on a postcard with 'CONFESSIONS' cut out from a magazine) Well, that's something I don't really understand. Although I guess there certainly are conservative social workers out there who exist. I guess. 

"I feel like my childhood was taken, and the military is the only way out." Taken by what? I guess (and I'm doing a little inferring here) if you grew up in an unhappy/unstable family, and wanted to get away from that, and you weren't well educated, the military might seem like the best/only option. As for me, I can't see joining the military as a solution for anything I'm facing. Or at the very least it's not a solution I'd prefer. 

"If I had known it was the end, would I have done it any different?" For some reason this one seems familiar, like I read it in a past week, but maybe I'm just imagining things. The questions here are a) the end of what? and b) done what exactly different? And technically, the word should be 'differently.'

 "His job protects your freedom... but it's destroying my life" (over a picture of a guy in a military uniform... Navy??) The military related secrets are always interesting, I think. I assume this secret possibly came from a wife or perhaps mother of a soldier. I wonder how, specifically, the guy's being in the military is destroying the writer's life. 

"Pride and Prejudice turns me on more than any erotica." (on a postcard with a picture of Colin Firth in Pride and Prejudice) Apparently Colin Firth was very alluring to the ladies in that role. 

"I feel dangerous when I pick flowers from other people's gardens. I like the rush..." This is an interesting little secret. I think it's okay to pick flowers from other people's gardens without their knowledge as long as it's in moderation, and you don't rip out all the flowers on their plants. But if there are a decent amount of flowers and you could pick one or two without them being noticeably missing, I say go for it. Make a nice bouquet and put in in a vase when you get home. 

"Would it be illegal to kill the robber who stole our home video tapes with my dead father's voice on them?" Yes, it would be illegal. Although I can understand the desire to kill someone for doing that. I wonder if I died, would people be sad to no longer hear me saying things? Maybe they would be glad that they wouldn't hear me complain all the time. There aren't actually that many videos/recordings of me saying things, come to think of it. Maybe I should make something, just in case. I could read a poem or something. Maybe the opening passage of Fahrenheit 451. However, the idea of recording one's voice so that if you die, other people can still hear you say things seems... a bit morbid, to say the least.
