~Trifolium repens~The four leaf clover is said to be a symbol of good luck. They say that finding a four leaf clover is rare. I knew a woman several years ago that had infinitely 'good luck' finding four leaf clovers. During breaks from work, she would find a spot under a tree to have her lunch. Almost every day she would return to work and hand a four leaf clover to one of her co-workers.
It is believed that the four leaflets symbolize~
~ HOPE~ FAITH~ LOVE~LUCK
Saint Patrick's Day, Shamrocks and four leaf clovers are all symbols of Good Luck. So, it would seem to me, that if one were lucky enough to be born on this day, Good Luck would follow them.
Today is Patricia's birthday. She needs no introduction- she is well known in our blog world. We instantly recognize Patricia's illustrations that frequently accompany her daily posts. We know the selfless assistance that Patricia has offered to many and her giving nature.
I want to take this day to thank Patricia for her kind support and encouragement. I hope this day holds many gifts for you~ not just the ones that can be unwrapped~ but the kind that offer HOPE, that there is always FAITH in your daily life, the LOVE surrounds you always, and LUCK in all that you pursue.
Enjoy this day and all that it holds, for it is yours~
