DEFINITION OF HEART from the Book “HEART”
HEART: It may be hard to define, but we all know it when we see it. Shakespeare called it the glorious intangible. Heart is the will to do and the soul to dare. It’s two parts caring, and three parts passion. It’s people who give more than they take. Heart has no particular age, gender or color, accepts no boundaries, offers no excuses, overcomes all odds, and comes through smiling.
