A Piece of My Heart


--by screechingbird, posted Jan 21, 2021
Quietly folding origami hearts was my meditative response to processing the events of this week in the U.S.

I left a small box of them in the post office lobby, hoping to offer peace and connection in these difficult times. I checked back later and almost all were gone.

There is such an art to letting go of that which we cannot control, and yet staying engaged with so much that we can still do to touch lives.
