On the inside of the doohickey is the cogwheel thingamajig. And that thingamajig keeps the thingy working well. It turns and cranks and circles around and round like the second hand on an analog face clock. On the inside of the workspace office are the people that run the show, and even if they have the most expensive of mechanisms will be a chaotic environment if not for the heart of the office glow. On the inside of the human is a mechanism most grand! The heart that pumps a life giving, bloody, stream of life. And the heart is the center of our emotions. Our heart is the reason we laugh and its the reason we cry the salty tears. But no matter the location on the GPS or no matter the engine in the truck, and no matter the ink in the pen, the heart of the person is the mechanism that matters more than the most.

Ahh!! Yes, the heart of a person whatever that is or where it is, is very wonderful if it is lined up with a righteous Higher Power. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K
