People are Paramount ~ Relationship is its cousin!

A ‘HEART THANG’


Once ~
I purchased a Beautiful red vase that caught my eye in a store window.
When I got it home, I put it in a Specially designated place where I could have constant visual access and admire it as often as I wanted to.

But... it did NOT qualify as a ‘HEART THANG’!

Also ~
I had an Exquisite painting... So-o-o picturesque ~ so soothing ~ and so aesthetically stimulating. It was strategically hung for panoramic visibility... never to be touched... only appreciated and intrinsically treasured from almost anywhere I stood.

But... that relationship was NOT a ‘HEART THANG’!

Again ~
I have an extraordinary plant which sits upon my spacious desk near an elegant picture window. It is so Green ~ so Vibrant ~ so full and Healthy. It provides me with so much visual gratification and exhilaration... and as much as I love admiring it...even it, could Never be closely compared to that of...

'A HEART THANG’!

However ~
I have family members, friends and have even met strangers which have crossed my path (sometimes just for a season), who were so very hospitable and accessible. For that moment we were the only ones in the universe and our only objective was the needs of the other. ...And though the occasion may have been short lived before resuming the affairs of our busy lives...

Let it be known ~ Far & Near,

Shout it from the rooftops ~ Loud and Clear,

PEOPLE are important... that ain’t slang

that’s what I call a real... ‛HEART THANG’!
