January 29

Okay, so I admit that it kind of looks like Hello Kitty's head.

But when I first unwrapped this should've-been-totally-round peppermint patty this evening, I thought it looked like a heart. Then I smiled to myself and mused over how it's comforting to be able to find little visual reminders of love wherever we go. -- Even inside a candy wrapper, and even if it only looks like love because it's not the perfect, archetypal patty I'd expected to find. That is surely a message worth mulling, if you ask me: love is perfect even though we're not, and it often shows up in unexpected forms and places.
