A small, strange magical story that happened last week.
Have you ever heard of of the little prayer to St. Anthony regarding lost objects?
I've always used it with good results - don't ask. I'm not an organized religion follower, yet I enjoy some of the Catholic saints. I'm known for my St. Francis artwork and enjoy painting them because of the love and relationship he had with nature and animals.
St. Anthony is another person who has had a positive effect.
My little magic story:
I wore a pair of silver hoops shopping one day and discovered one missing when I got back into my hot car after shopping . I went back into the store and asked if anyone had turned it in - of course not.
I was bummed. So even though the earring had been lost at the store, I repeated the little prayer several times when I got home, then gave up. This was three weeks ago.
The other day, I got a back pack out I hadn't used - since May. When I reached into the front pocket, there was the other silver hoop earring...
Honestly, I was astonished and in wonder - but refrained from the usual questions. Focused on Gratitude instead :)
Yes, magic Does exist, especially when we least expect it.
