There was a time people used to have personal diaries to write their day-to-day stuff, mostly the feelings. Whatever the things come across in their mind, they write it as a memory or to freed their heads. Like Anne Frank did. Some called it a journal, some say a scrap book, but whatever it was, it is private, a secret, among themselves. It's hidden thing from the public. A closed environment.
But if you take the situation in nowadays, with the emergence of internet and technology, we can see people are being more open when they are expressing their feelings over the web. I guess the intangibility and tangibility factor create a great impact when considering why people have two different notions when dealing with the two ways.
Found a great quote when I go through the lecture notes for the subject Security.
"If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you do not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees."- Kahlil Gibran -
What we say over the web, who knows what or when or where could it be lead us. So all what we can say is, be aware.
