what has touched your heart?

I still have a sense of being loved up, which is impressive given just how much I was yelled at by a child this morning. Nonetheless, I'm feeling the love come in from all directions, and it's good :) I'm in a chilled place - my morning meeting has been cancelled leaving me time to play with for sorting all my other things that need sorting.
A few phrases have stuck with me from the weekend. Yesterday's musical journeys included catching Hotel California on the radio - the last line has always haunted me: "You can check out any time you like but you can never leave." I'm certainly not going to attempt an exogesis here, but I was again struck how things/people/events stay with us, are not lost to us forever, even when they change.
The other phrase, from Saturday, is much easier to see its positive angle. The question used to prompt our feedback to the whole group was "What's touched your heart?" This is a fantastic question. In facilitating anything I'm usually pulled to ask an evaluative "head" question - "what have you learned, what have you found useful." But I LOVE this question and shall be asking it whenever I can.
So, what has touched your heart this morning? Savour it :D
