I am prone to depression. It never really makes logical sense... it just creeps in and before you know it; it's filled the room with it's desperation. And so I try to distract myself. To step outside of this room...
And so I am trying to finish up a few projects I've recently started (and a couple older ones as well).
I have about a week left before I need to turn in my journal for The Sketchbook Project... I am sending a prayer flag to Leighanna Light... who started an art project to make peace flags for the town of Newtown, Conn... I had a give-away in celebration of having 1000 sales in my Etsy shop; so I am sending out gifts to 3 lucky winners... and today I signed up for a craft project; whereby I send out 5 homemade crafts to 5 lucky responders.
I am also preparing a gift box for a friend of a friend who was recently diagnosed with cancer.

It's really a selfish act... by giving my time and energy into preparing something for someone else... I am really escaping my own thoughts
... if only for a little bit... and that is good...

And hopefully... they will enjoy it as well.
