Greeting Cards

i'm beginning to form a frustration with the greeting card industry. i've been looking for that special card for my mom because tomorrow is mother's day, and i have been soooo disappointed with the quality of cards these days. have you noticed how egocentric the messages are?? here, we are trying to find something that tells our special ones how we feel about them, and all that exists are cards that quickly turn into "here's how you meet all MY needs...". even the "religious" versions can be a let-down..."god put you in my life to bless me..." seriously?? barf! perhaps it's an insightful glimpse into our selfish culture...or the lack of relational intimacy known anymore because we have other idols (self being #1).

time for making them from scratch...
