Hearts Abound - A tear in a tablecloth



In developing my focus for sets of heartstones from different places, I’m starting to notice how many different ways hearts are showing up– since starting my third collection of heartstones.

After this mornings walk I sat a table for breakfast and noticed my reaction to a tear in the tablecloth…go on you might guess I was less than accepting…until I looked again and noticed it was perfectly ripped in the shape of a heart, which brought instant inspiration acceptance and joy.

I set out to capture its uncommon beauty, and kept adding to it, taking a bracelet from my wrist and encircling the now precious piece of art, enhancing it.

I shared with Lori how my bracelet was a combination of three different bracelets girlfriends had given me, and that I’d restrung them to make one new piece a day before getting on the plane, thus taking a piece of them all (bracelets and girlfriends) with me, I know they will have a heartfelt moment upon seeing the photo captured image.
Then I set out to play with the heart shaped coral pieces from my morning walk.

Come lunchtime, sitting down with Lori, I noticed a leaf, perfectly formed in a heart shape. Sadly I might not get that back through customs, but at least I’ve held it for a moment and captured it for a lifetime…and will share it with you here, thus connecting your heart (my reader) to the soul of this joyurney
