thoughtful thursday

dad has the remarkable ability to stand amid clover, look down and find a four leafed clover! it's astonishing how effortless he manages to make this undertaking seem.  the last time he did this in my presence, he saw one after only a few minutes. a very short time later, he found another one!  others look and look and look and never find the seemingly rare stem of clover.  perhaps, sometimes, we look so hard we cannot see.  that is something to consider when we are engrossed in the urgency of seeking.
