On Wednesday, I found my first four-leaf clover. Who doesn't need a little luck?
It has dried over the past couple days, but it is still clearly a four leaf clover.
There has been a lot rolling around in my mind lately as far as what I really want and what my goals are and how I'll go about achieving them, and the like. When I found the four leaf clover I thought to myself, "The universe is trying to tell me something."
Four-leaf Clover Poem
by Ella Higginson
I know a place where the sun is like gold,
And the cherry blooms burst with snow,
And down underneath is the loveliest nook,
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.
One leaf is for HOPE, and one is for FAITH,
And one is for LOVE, you know,
And GOD put another in for LUCK --
If you search, you will find where they grow.
But you must have HOPE, and you must have FAITH,
You must LOVE and be strong -- and so --
If you work, if you wait, you will find the place
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.
Hope, Faith, Love, and Luck. I've been deeply in need of all of these lately.
It is also said that the leaves of the three-leaf Clover represent the Holy Trinity: one leaf for the Father, one for the Son and one for the Holy Spirit. When a Shamrock is found with the fourth leaf, it represents God's Grace.
I'm hoping for:
clarity
direction
an end to my schooling
adventure
seeing my book come to fruition
I have faith that:
things will work themselves out
there is a greater plan for me
together, two people (or more) can work through anything
I love:
my husband
writing
long walks no matter the weather
being in the moment
life
the journey
I am loved by:
my husband
my furry loves
myself (most of the time)
I am lucky because:
my optimism is strong
I am loved
I have overcome many obstacles
I am alive and growing
I know that, by God's Grace, all things are figured out in time, but a little luck along the way never hurts.
As Abra Moore sings:
See, I've been thinking it over
It's all just a little too much
You see I've got a four leaf clover
It's gotta bring a little luck
