Getting my mind away from sickness to enjoy JOY in life...

This is a great group idea. A place to get our minds off our problems and chronic illnesses even if just a little while is awesome. Kudos to my brother, my dear friend, our groups founder.
I am big on cards and writing. I have a heart for encouragement and bringing a smile to those who need a smile, some compassion, a friend they know cares and doesn't judge. I am in the process of a card ministry which God laid upon my heart. I am also in process of writing a book of living with chronic illness with positivity and faith being essential elements in my experience anywho. Also, a elder at church has asked to take some of my prayer poems and make them into greeting cards with his niece doing the graphic design for the cards. So, this sounds like a great adventure to add to the list.
I am interested in what others do to take your minds off your struggles, problems, hearaches, sickness. Sending out prayers and thoughts for a wonderful day. This is National Day of Prayer so I will be in a steady state of prayer this entire day including for our country, for the Iraqui war to cease, for the soldiers to all be able to come home, for families to be rejoined, for peace to blanket the entire universe by God's perfect design. And, more of course.
Peace, prayers and blessings to you each!!!

got my curiosity up, too... will you be selling your greeting cards online? Perhaps at etsy? (I've bought some handmade card there. It may be a good site to sell yours.) -
