302. I Wish, I Wish Upon the Wishing Bridge

tree, Jaffa

The wishing bridge instructs me to hold my zodiac sign and look at the sea.

I see the sea, and I see a heart...hmmmmm....

Happy New Year to all!

199. Renaissance: A New Beginning

detail on gate, Tel Aviv

Itzik taught me that when we say the word coincidence backwards in Hebrew it spells out God sewed; in other words God intended it to be.

This morning I coincidenlty passed this gate which I used as my first heart on this blog. Having photographed it again with a higher resolution, the visibility of this open heart has improved.

As the new year begins, I am clearly reminded to keep an open heart!

Itzik's heart would love for others to help children with cancer http://www.israelcancer.org/home.html
