• A few weeks ago we brought you amazing photos of heart-shaped leaves. This time we offer you a collection of gorgeous photos of heart-shaped stones. The photos remind us that we need to stay focused on our hearts. The quality of a person depends on the quality of his/her heart. Our actions spring from who and what we are.

  • It was Jodi Picoult who wrote that "Love meant jumping off a cliff and trusting that a certain person would be there to catch you at the bottom." This is the quote that inspired me to collect the following photos of people jumping. Everyone in the photo seems to be jumping with joy.
