The heart is what makes someone Fearless

The human heart is an incredible organ. It has four chambers which pump blood through our blood vessels through rhythmic contractions. The average human heart, beating at 72 beats per minute, will beat approximately 2.5 billion times during a lifetime (about 66 years). For many centuries it was believed that the heart was the actual location of the mind. When our anscestors died, those who cared for the dead would toss the brain aside but do much to protect the heart. The heart symbolizes the soul, and while it is a physical organ essential to living, it also symbolizes our emotions and feelings. Our capacity to forgive and be kind. And most of all, the heart's capacity to love is an awe-inspiring thing. So on this Friday I wanted to give thanks for the human heart, for keeping our blood pumping and for all the wonderful people in the world who know how to use their hearts to touch others'.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

-Helen Keller

Have a heart that never hardens, a temper that never tires, a touch that never hurts.

-Charles Dickens
A joyful heart is the inevitable result of a heart burning with love.

-Mother Theresa Happy Valentine's Day!
