As an iHermit, I minimize my time on the internet, but I still visit a couple sites like PostSecret. This postcard was posted last week:
![[PostSecret postcard]](http://you.cowpi.com/images/06/postcard-all_i_want.jpg "On a postcard, a young girl whispers a secret to a friend. It reads: 'all i want is for you to be honest with me, and happy. i could never be disappointed in you. so don't be afraid.'")
The emailed comment posted underneath this postcard says:
I believe that a new religion could be based on this single postcard.
It is a crying shame that we have distorted religion so much that many people cannot see that this is the very same message of Jesus.

Keep hope alive.
Dare to trust.
Surrender to grace.
··· Reflect love. ···
Gravitate to humility.
Pray always.
All is gift.
