Why I Created Optimism Cards?
Simply, I couldn’t resist! Following a near fatal motor vehicle accident in 2007, and the subsequent hurdles from physical and brain injury to rehabilitation there were two things that pulled me along towards engagement once more- writing and
photography.
When I first emerged from a coma, I would have enjoyed an opportunity to look at an image that allowed my eyes to feast without focus, then as my brain began to recognise language again, I would have enjoyed the opportunity to focus on a word, and gradually as comprehension came into my awareness, read and contemplate a message. My intention was to build into the design of each card, these three components.
As I was compelled to generate these Optimism Cards, I was also pulled towards completion as I became a channel for their messages. The process has been both magical and metaphoric, a great expression of joy and are to be used and explored as such.
Regardless of my personal journey and reasons for their development, these cards are conduits for change, anybody’s change with or without a brain or physical challenge- bottom line- they are optimistic and useful tools to bring focus, clarity and joy into your life or someone you love.
Creating these cards has contributed to my personal journey to health, wellness and radiance and it my pleasure to share them with you.
Thank you!
