I found a Four Leaf Clover

I remember as a young kid, reading a book and the girl in the book was scouting around for a four-leave clover in a field of clovers, and finally feeling so happy and lucky that she found one. Ever since then, I have always always dreamed of one day being able to find a four-leave clover, or I guess the more appropriate way of saying... Having a four-leave clover find me. Finding a four-leave clover is like looking for a needle in a haystack! Doesn't help that all clovers look the same anyway. And after scouting around for awhile, all the green petals of all the clovers start to mesh together and look like  green blobs... That's why I have always had that secret thought that four-leave clovers have to find you. You don't find it, it finds you. The idealist/romantist me has always kept a look out for four-leave clovers whenever I'm sitting in grass. This time.. in Bloomington, Indiana. With the company of Ms. Joliana Yee... My first four-leave clover found me. And I got so excited. I sat down in the grass while Joliana snapped away and took pictures of me and the scenery (haha!), and realized that I was sitting in a field of clovers. Of course, I looked... peered amongst the many clovers, and almost immediately IT FOUND ME! It's a sign of optimism. A sign for me to keep my head held high..

I'm passing my clover on to a person who needs it most. I hope it'll bring magical good luck and sprinkle you with joys when you least expect it within the next years. Keep it close to you okay? I'm going to be pissed if you throw it away.
