Hello!

The phenomenon of seeing hearts in things around me has followed me for the last 6 years. I became aware of its meaning through a very spiritual friend who told me my spirit people want me to know I am loved, and they are watching over me.

Spirit people are with us in our life. Sometimes there are many, sometimes just a few or even one, but they are drawn to our life energy, and want to help us. I have come to call them my loved ones in spirit.

I was beginning a very painful and intense transition at this time, and unbeknownst to me, this transition would last for years to come.

Since I had no family to support me emotionally, I welcomed, and sometimes clung to the hearts in my days. I would see dozens in a day, while other times, just a few. Sometimes they would dwindle to the point of nonexistence, only to bloom anew and in profusion for days or weeks.

I started photographing them late last year, as a kind of testament to my experience. Just a few here and there. No materials have been manipulated on my part. I photographed them as I discovered them.

It suddenly occurred to me that with a new year, I would like to capture as many as I can and post them here on this blog.

If this resonates with you even a little bit, then I know the reason I am drawn to do this.

The shots I add today are the ones I have collected till now. I will post them as I find them.




Photographing the hearts as they appear can be tricky, even if you have a camera on you. Sometimes their presence is momentary, and then they are gone. But I will do my best to capture their appearance, conditions as they may be.


It's that simple. Miracles can hide in plain sight sometimes.
