heart attacks

January 31, 2026

I made 73 paper Spread Love hearts for the Slavic festival at the Russian Center in San Francisco today. This was my first Heart Attack. I am hoping someone who finds a heart will send me an email. Making the hearts was time consuming but quite meditative with a touch of thrilling if that makes any sense. I felt like I had a purpose. I put the hearts in my purse and was going to hand them out to anyone and everyone. What actually happened, was that I lost my courage. I handed one to the person who I bought a drink from and another to a person who I bought a snack from. I also gave one to each of my friends who joined me at the festival, and even then I felt uncomfortable doing it. So I threw a bunch on a table in the dining room and that was it. I was disappointed in myself. But when I got home I turned it around and decided that I was proud to have given out the few that I did knowing that the next event woudl be just that little bit easier.
