Heart Leaves

I did not write anything on Valentine’s Day, because it happened to be also Ash Wednesday. But as if God wanted me to appreciate also the gift of love He gives us, he presented me with an unusual plant as I was walking to a meeting yesterday. It’s some kind of an ivy vine, which climbs along walls and spreads profusely without any care, just rain water, of which we had an abundance over the last few days. Here are two photos of these unusual leaves in the shape of a heart. Truly, love is in the air, and climbing walls too.
