Wow, the reaction to Adam's tweets was one of the most amazing things I've seen. First Adam tweeted the photo, and people were flailing and UNFing and ~commenting on the hair.
Then he tweeted the question about our insecurities, and there was a bit of a pause, and then his @ replies absolutely exploded. I swear they were going by so fast on Tweetdeck it was impossible to read. All you could do was catch a word or phrase here and there: fat, alone, scared, being judged, feeling dumb... etc etc etc.
An outpouring of vulnerability and pain. And then he tweeted about people all having the same hangups, and after a little while a lot of the tweets shifted to people thanking him and expressing love. And I saw lots of tweets where people were giving each other "hugs" and support and love as they read other people's confessions.
Now after his last tweet it's an outpouring of love towards Adam. (And lots of tweets from people who say they have the same issues.)
I feel like I witnessed some kind of living-art/therapy session/flashmob/social experiment. Very, very cool. Adam has a lot of power-- I kind of feel like we're only seeing the very beginnings of what he is capable of.

For those of you who are not on twitter, Adam's tweet question set off quite the therapy session. Wow. Followers are tweeting support to each other, hugging, sending love.... it's a beautiful thing.

When he talked about "healing" in the first tweet, all I could think of was that something happened to trip his own insecurities. I love living art-therapy much, much more. |

I have a secret hope that 20 years from now he goes into politics. He would be such a powerful figure! |

I wonder if it is all wrapped up in the events of yesterday. Making the point of how we are all the same really.
I've never seen his @ replies fly like that. People were amazing sharing themselves.
