Finding Love

61,230 views
Filmmaker and photographer Hailey Bartholomew recently moved to the beach and decided to test her theory that "what we see mainly depends on what we look for." In three weeks of walking the beach every couple of days, she and her family and friends found 352 heart rocks! In this sweet video, made on a shoestring budget (filmed on an iPhone and edited in iMovie), Hailey concludes that "If we choose to look for something beautiful in the people around us, we will find it."

Thank you for reminding me I get what I look for
Powerful message conveyed beautifully

What a beautiful inspiring video. I too have been collecting hearts in nature and believe also that you find what you are looking for, by paying attention. What is the name of the song you have playing in the background? I absolutely love it! 💙

I have experience this so often in my life that I am surprised I don't use it more often for stuff that makes me feel really lit-up and energized! Hailey has done a wonderful job putting this practice into our visual memory! Thank you so very much!

Besides agreeing with and feeling empowered by the message that "what we see mainly depends on what we look for" ... I love heart rocks and how they find a way to find me!!
Kim
I have a heart rock collection too and feel that each find is a gift and the sense of creative discovery in finding them a joy! Thank you for the delightful video!

I remembered reading a poem about shiny pennies. When my husband was dying I asked him to place some on earth for me after his death to make me feel warm inside. The first time I left the house after his death I found one on my car seat, after shopping there was one on the ground in front of the driver's door. It has been 5 years and I have found over a thousand shiny pennies. the last 2 were a week ago. I was on vacation in the Ozarks, staying in the same room where we always stayed and there was a shiny penny on the floor next to the bed. I believe you find what you seek. Always be aware.
