Shamrocks and violets. Luck and Beauty. I tend not to believe in luck except in the past tense. Then I call it grace as in "There but for the grace of God, go I." Maybe I think it is bad luck to wish for good luck. I prefer beauty. I believe those who train themselves to look for the beauty in everyday life are happier and luckier than most. At least that is the one trick I have learned to make my life happy and myself contented with my lot. I wish that you who read this are lucky enough to learn to find the beauty in life.
Thank-you for the lovely reminder. : )
