Post Secret Reflection

The post secret card I made features a famous scene from the movie The Sound of Music with the caption “When I can’t sleep at night…I listen to The Sound of Music soundtrack.” The message I was trying to get across was pretty straightforward and blunt. My post secret card was actually true, (though not for 4 plus years) so I really was not trying to trick or confuse the reader. The background and imagery was not too difficult to select because I wanted to choose an image that people easily related to that movie. My classmates all seemed to get the basic message. There was no subliminal message hidden in the card, and all of the content was in the text. No one saw beyond what I was trying to say because the message in the card was pretty direct, so there was not much else to dissect. I was intrigued to see that there were no surprised reactions to the card. I guess when compared with some of the other messages in the actual post secret cards, mine does not seem too crazy or out of the norm.
