Holiday card project

What is the Holiday cad project? 
The purpose of the holiday card project is to create holiday cards for people that are hospitalized during the holiday season. The idea behind the project is to simply bring a little cheer to those who are undergoing hospital stay.

Exactly who receives the cards?  
The cards will be distributed to both U.S and international hospitals. The cards will be delivered in-person by a representative. The patients who receive the cards age in range from children to seniors and have illness or injuries that vary from mild to terminal. 

What should I write in a card?
Be as creative as you'd like. Just remember, the degree of illness for patients will vary, so its important to be cheerful. Some suggested greetings include, "Hope your felling better" ,       "Thinking of you" , or "Have a nice day". Try to stay away from "Get well soon" as it might not be appropriate for all patients. Remember to include a message of "Happy holidays" 

Will the patients know who sent the cards?

African proverb #7

"An intelligent enemy is better than a stupid friend." 

Having an intelligent enemy is good because they will try to outsmart you 
and you will constantly try to outsmart them. This could help you become smarter 
because you constantly try to think a head of them so you would study them. This is 
better than having a stupid friend because if you have a stupid friend than everything
is simple. You don't really have to think about outsmarting a stupid friend. This 
could make you stupid or you would just be average.
