As most do, my girlfriend has instilled a new custom in my life of 30+ years of walking with my eyes scurrying the pavement for a sign of hope and good fortune (not that necessarily the pennies will eventually add to one, but still). We had a discussion about this early on and she explained how she had come to realize this is the manner in which God speaks to her. She suggested that I should give it a try... so I have... it was frustrating at first... I believe a good 3-4 days past and my quest for the disregarded penny seemed futile... then... it was then on a trip to Starbucks during my lunch hour that I found two pennys, side by side, and I remember an overwhelming refreshing feeling came over me. I've previously heard of the perceptions between those who walk with heads bowed, making little to no eye contact and of those (like my former self) who walked looking for signs straight ahead. Eh... whatever... it is still a neat feeling to fine the selfless coin waiting for me to come to its rescue to later tender to my lady which will end up in our church prayer bucket.
