Four Leaf Clovers and…

I grew up in a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio. From an early age, I had a sense, the explanation of life, this world, was not covering everything. Of course, I was somewhat aware of science and creation, every explanation out there, depending on varying facts or beliefs.

As some kids do, I asked my Mom, “why is the sky blue?” I also asked “Mom, how did we get here.” She started explaining babies, where they come from I said, “No, Mom. How did WE get here.” I think I was 9 then. I remember thinking beyond how or why were we here. I was sure I could come up with the answer to my questions.

I seemed to be aware of the wonder, magic, and mystery, if you will, that surrounded us, even then. I wanted to know everything. Why would a kid in the midwest be thinking about this?

As a teenager, I purchased a book called Law of Attraction. I can picture the book now. Simple in its presentation, quite thin with big white lettering on a bold chartreuse cover. No idea what has happened to it now.

I like what Jane Fonda said in her acceptance speech from AFI, “Ask questions. Stay curious. Stay interested. It’s much more important to be interested than interesting.” I haven’t been able to find if she took that from someone else but none the less I think it is a great quote.

How many of us, have you had the sense of dread before something unfortunate happens? Thought of someone and they contact you? Have you experienced this level of clairvoyance or something psyhic in nature?

Often times growing up and today, I would think of something, a show I hadn’t seen in a while, a conversation I imagined having and was astounded when that movie would show up on TV, or the subject would come up weeks or months later with someone.

Or back when people made phone calls, more often. The phone would ring, that same person you thought of the day before or in that moment would be saying hello on the other end.

I will share some more on this, some experiences in another post.

When I was eleven or twelve. I had a conversation with a friend about 4 leaf clovers. I can’t remember the entire context but I remember telling her, I hadn’t ever found a 4 leaf clover, wouldn’t it be cool to find one…

Now today they track us online 😳 other ways, I suspect but before it was possible, I realized that as I set my intention on something or spoke, of it, his or her name, or allowed myself to dream, my thoughts became a reality.

Soon after that conversation with my friend, Jen. I went to sit in one of my favorite little spots, between our house and the neighbors. Under one of my favorite climbing trees. We used to play Kind of The Hill there, jumping and rolling all around, and as I sat there that day, I looked down and there they were. Two, four leaf clovers, all by themselves it seemed.

It felt as if they or something else was saying, “Here we are and here you are Jennifer.” I wish I could explain to you what it felt like to have them in my hands.

The quiet you may feel in your being, as I do at times, when you let everything else fall away. It’s spirit and or a vibration if you will. Even as a child I was moved because in that stillness, in the solitude of that moment, I knew I wasn’t alone.

The simple and as coincidental as this might have been it was the first and last time I’ve ever found a 4 leaf clover and first time I learned that maybe, just maybe anything was possible.

Thank you for reading.
