This being the last day of February, also makes it the last day of "heart health" month. Inspired by an article I read in the newspaper, I, personally am going to spend the day seeking heart shapes anywhere and everywhere...in the clouds, the flowers, and in ordinary and not so ordinary objects. As an example, as I just glanced to the right of my monitor, I saw two of my … [Read more...] about Hearts are Everywhere.
