It was my sis who spotted this first heart of the weekend. She’s a regular contributor to the Chain-Link Heart Project, so of course she kept her eyes peeled for hearts."

• The Link: "Heart bench we found on our way to brunch."

• The Link: "I call this one, 'The heart seeker in Calistoga.' Here is Amy Christensen: my BFF, wombmate, soulmate. Being my wombmate, I thought of Lorenzo and H. being wombmates too. I guess that goes for any sibling who follows Lorenzo really. Amy found these hearts that were bent into their shape from old metal rings of wine barrels. How brilliant, right? We were in wine country after all, so it was nice to see the metal rings be repurposed into hearts. The woman who was selling them was originally from Santiago, Chile. Yes, a Chilean. How wondrous the Universe works."

As I peeked from my bedroom window, there it was, a heart. Lorenzo saying, 'Hey, thought I’d just hang out in front of your house! Happy 4^th!'"

Seeing the heart reminded me that no matter what kind of evolution / change I was going through, it wouldn't mean much if my heart wasn't in it. So, a reminder that true change comes from the heart."
