Ancient cultures believed the human soul lived in the heart. Others
thought it to be the source of emotions and intelligence. Some believed
the heart embodied a man's truth, strength and nobility. The heart may
be associated with love because the ancient Greeks believed it was the
target of Eros, known as cupid to the Romans. Anyone shot in the heart
by one of Cupid's arrows would fall hopelessly in love. Because the
heart is so closely linked to love, its red colour is thought to be the
most romantic.
This Chihuahua puppy literally wears its heart on its sleeve. The cute male pooch, born with a
perfect heart-shaped patch on its side, has been suitably named Heartkun by its
owner in northern Japan. The one-and-a-half-month-old pup was born as
one of a big litter, but is the only new arrival to sport such a
heart-warming coat.
According to owner Emiko Sakurada, and reported in the Daily Mail, this is
the first occasion a puppy with such marks had been born out of the more
than one thousand Chihuahuas she has bred.
This heart shaped stone is thought provoking. Did the stone
mason shape it deliberately? It this a Valentine? If so, whose name is on the other side
of the wall?
