Just how lucky one can get?

I have heard about clover leaves, it is believed that whoever finds a four leaf clover gets one wish and it’ll come true. watching Japanese animes, Korean films and series had me thinking of at least I get to see a clover leaf. I was so curious about this certain leaf which creates this kind of momentum to someone who sees it, so positive that I get to feel the intense urge of me wishing for that one day.

In the Philippines, we can see all kinds of plants and leaves yet there is no way to see a clover field, or at least a portion of a land that has clovers on it. It is something unusual kind of a plant in my homeland that made me even more curious of how it really looks like, trust me when I pull weeds in our gardens or I get to pass by a field I have to check on of whether I could get the chance of seeing and finding a clover leaf. 

Few days ago, I’ve decided to go to churchand took a walk in the city’s Botanical and Zoological Garden. I was so surprised of how flowers are defying the threat of winter breeze and despite of the freezing temperature they’re growing beautifully and it’s not een spring just yet. Lovely and wonderful! With my mobile phone I took every opportunity I have at the moment to take photos, until this one lavender colored petal greeted me out of nowhere and to look at it closer I have to kneel down on the ground as it is very tiny and almost too impossible to recognize.

I was even surprised that I have finally came face to face with clovers, they seem to have grown their way onto the bed  of other species planted in that garden which makes them obviously  illegal immigrants (exaggeratedly described it). There were morning glory, hibiscus, all sorts of spring grown japanese azalea, purples and orange red petals of grown plants everywhere but I was struck by the clovers fitting in to tiny spaces in the garden.

Of course, it was the greatest opportunity to unfold just before my eyes and I am not going home without a single photo of those tiny flower bearing leaves. I’ve searched for a four leaf clover but haven’t found any since they’re just illegal immigrants, but I was so happy that I couldn’t stop smiling thinking how lucky I was.

Even without four leaf clover, my life gets luckier everytime. It was the most unexpected scene I ever have encountered on that day and I am beyond feeling just how lucky I got after taking some time to walk around the city’s garden. I believe that it is not just something that makes wishes come true, it’s perhaps a bond that connects someone to what the heart truly desired. The stronger the faith grows, the greater possibility one can get that wish come true. It all thanks to whatever we think have boosted our faith, of course, faith in God is a must but it won’t hurt our religious faith if we find more was to boost our faith and beliefs right?

Just how lucky one can get? It may as rare as of finding a four leaf clover, but when you see clovers that way. When you find a field of clover, that means you were lucky enough to witness its existence and it is not jus a four leaf but rather more. It is how we appreciate even the little things that lead us to a more surreal events of our lives, the more grateful our hearts become the more we witness our wishes to come true in a matter of time
