The Cards Take Flight

As mentioned in my previous post

I created some little cards with the intention of passing them around

Only to realize my 'around' is limited

So up popped the idea to ask for help

I was surprised to receive 20 offers...many from people I've never met

So the majority have been mailed to random parts of the U.S. & Canada

with pending ones to Spain, Singapore and Australia

I am so thankful to these people

The thing is I've been torn by the card concept

At a mental level I think they're goofy

When I'm in densely populated areas I get to see more ugliness

I get to hear about more ugliness and realize alot of people just

really suck

which leads to me thinking what a stupid idea 

 

But it's when I ignore the 'all about me' attitudes and look beyond

that I find where love resides

there is where strangers help strangers

where people take time to really care or listen

and it's cool to see others helping others

I'm not one of those people...I now prefer to stay at arm's length

But I love to see that there are still genuine people

 

I don't like the feeling of handing my cards to people

My connection in this is hands off

But I have to admit that I have been intrigued by them

By the little stories that people have shared with me

as a result of passing out a card 

 

It's a piece of paper with pixels

And yet...it's not
