Several years ago I made this card for Christmas, but looking at it today I felt it was appropriate for Valentine's also. Inside it said "Open your heart to peace". I hope each of us keeps peace in your heart. Recently I read Practicing Peace in Times of War by Pema Chodron. In the book she talks about having a change of heart, softening what is rigid in our hearts and minds. So as we approach Valentine Day and have thoughts of the heart, let's remember to soften our hearts to those around us and in the world.
