The Mystery of the Wooden Hearts

Post by the_anonymous »

For over a year, possibly more, no matter the place in downtown Kelowna, I have come across small carved wooden hearts left in random places.

Waterfront beach, inside Blenz coffee on Bernard and the water park in the city park are three places where I have come across the small carved hearts. Left for a person to find. I have a small collection growing.

Has anyone else found them as well? Where are they coming from? Does anyone know who is leaving them around?

Sometimes magical things happen and might be simply nothing more than what they actually are.

Hope your collection grows...

Two people in love have been trying to find each other for years.
Being aged, neither has a fondness for the internet, so resources are limited.
He told her when he left, that he'd be back for her one day.

"When I return, I'll leave a wooden heart where you can find it and know I'll be there looking for you, my love."

After years of absence, he finally got to mark his return with a carefully carved wooden heart, just like the dozens in his pack. Each of them carefully carved by a loving hand, in anticipation of one day returning to his sweetheart to live out their days in bliss.

36 hand carved wooden hearts, representing the 36 years he was away.
36 hand carved wooden hearts, representing the young age they both were when they were torn apart.

For 36 years, she has been walking those same footsteps they walked the last night they had together.
For 36 years, she has walked alone, longing for the return of her one true.

When all 36 are gone, he'll know it's been too long, and his true love is lost forever.

How many hearts have you got in your collection?
