love thursday – the red balloon

love-thursday-balloon

Returning home on  Sunday, I noticed this red balloon tied to a fence along a dirt path. The fence has always been closed, but that day, it was simply adorned with a bit of love.

I could probably dream of a couple reasons why this balloon was here, but I’ll leave it up to your imagination…..

No rhyme or reason, no explanation – just a random act of kindness left behind.  Upon first glance, this warmed my heart, and I hope it does the same for you.

Happy Love Thursday!

I wonder why that spot is special and what the lovers’ story is? I have a million of them sprinting through my mind right now.

Happy Love Thursday!

BRAVA for actually stopping! I see things all the time and drive on by and I regret it a minute later! Thanks for sharing the love!

I wish you could hear me as I open your posts each day. And I wish I could describe the audible sounds that I make.

I LOVE THIS IMAGE! I loved it BEFORE I read your narration. And then I LOVED IT EVEN MORE after I read your narration. ♥ ♥ ♥

Within five seconds, I’ve thought of several beautiful stories why this balloon was left. Maybe it is JUST to feed the imagination. What a splendid splash of vivid color surrounded by space – stillness.

Sending love on this Thursday!

Since tomorrow is my wedding anniversary (27 years) it made me think of a wedding or bridal shower:)

This is so magical. I just may have to start tying balloons in random places myself.

Well done!

There’s nothing quite so cheering as a balloon, is there? What a happy picture.
