On retreat a few years ago, we did this amazingly cathartic exercise. We wrote notes on small slips of paper. The notes could be secrets, confessions, problems, or anything that was a barrier between us and God, or us and others. We took those notes and we nailed them on to a cross. Followed it with a simple prayer. Sometimes, thoughts can overwhelm me. I'm gonna go buy a stack of postcards.
A fun alternative:
-----Email Message-----Get that crap off your mind. Oh, and go read PostSecret.

Dear Frank,
Today we decided to write down our secrets and put them in little plastic eggs along with some candy. We hid them all over San Diego. It was the best Easter we've ever had.

I think the sender of this card was on Oprah this week.
