Jigsaw

“You are my missing piece,” is written on the packet I saw in a gift shop. Inside the small packet you find a necklace with a piece of a jigsaw.

Looking into the shop windows at the present time here in Kaitaia you can see advertisements like this:

“Valentine’s Day

Tuesday 14 February 2017″

Heart

Looking up The Collins Concise Dictionary I find that a valentine is “a card or gift expressing love or affection on Saint Valentine’s Day”. After St Valentine, who was a 3rd-century A.D. Christian martyr.

Let me close with what Augustine said:

“OUR HEARTS ARE RESTLESS UNTIL THEY FIND REST IN THEE.”
