I'm trying to work on various things here since I am home from work (on disability because of the depression) and I am trying to get back into a productive state again. It is slow going. Working a bit on these images and actually having the patience and concentration to finish them and follow through is a small but good sign.

So, like most things in life, the act of "giving" has as much if not more benefit for the giver as for the givee. Especially in this case.

I also want to reiterate that I am new here and have a long way to go before I know everyone and their personalities and needs. So these images I did as an excersize for myself and the recipients are just a few of the people I noticed in my time here as deserving, but that doesn't mean that others aren't deserving. Like going to a party and meeting some great people as soon as you get there... doesn't mean that there aren't other great people at the party whom are destined to become your friends as well, these are just a few people who happened to be in the buffet line with you so you met them first.

I'm kind of sensitive about this myself (amplified about a million times because of the depression) and I don't want anyone to feel slighted. I will try to make more of these as I go along if I can.
