Finding Four Leaf Clovers

Why did my finger stop today on one specific photo?                                               A smile was needed, it had been a rough day.                                                                 It was on a site I visit infrequently.

Was it meant to "pop up" today?                                                                                 To remind me of Mom in a special way?

I believe there's a reason;                                                                                             We don't always see when we first look. 

It takes time to absorb and understand;                                                                        the power of the past in the present for the future.

In Spring, Summer & Fall,                                                                                         Mom would walk on the sidewalk.                                                                 Suddenly, in the grass,                                                                                                   She would spot a Four Leaf Clover. 

She would bend down, carefully pick,                                                                               offer it to whoever was walking with her.    

It gives me hope, once again,                                                                                             along with the struggles and the challenges.  

There are bright and shining moments,                                                                             continuing positives surrounding our daily lives.                                     

Mom gave the gift of sharing & caring to everyone.

She didn't have to look for it.

The good luck symbol found her.                                                      

And often it wasn't just one. 

Mom always found and saw the beauty,                                                                   the love and the possibilities,                                                                                       even in the darkest moments of life.

I miss her. I miss my husband.                                                                                       The "good" memories of times past guide me today.              

We Women prefer to see the Rainbows of Life.

We weather the storms,                                                                                                       We struggle in the darkness,                                                                                              Celebrating the light emerging & shining through.

Our belief is tomorrow, if we work for today, will be better.

My Cousin's daughter has a "family gift".                                                          Reappearing generation to generation.                                                                       

Finding "joy" and "hope" beneath our feet,                                                                     on our path. . .  just look for it.

It gives hope there are bright, shining moments

Continuing positives surrounding our daily lives.
