Stop Looking For It

Futility Of Searching

Everyone loves a good story. Here’s a nice one
Where the Law of Attraction is the basic theme.
A lady with her baby went shopping for shoes.
There were many boutiques and shops from which to choose.
They later stopped at a place for cake and ice cream.
The whole day was one filled with excitement and fun.

She bought shoes for her little one. They were not cheap,
Yet she purchased them for sentimental value.
The shoes went onto the baby’s feet at the mall.
Seeing her in them was the best feeling of all.
When they got home, one shoe was missing. Not a clue
Did she have of its whereabouts. She did not weep.

But she did search the whole mall the very next day
Hoping she’d come across it. She searched high and low
Trying to retrace her steps, but it was useless.
She was disappointed, but she didn’t express
Feelings of desperation. No woe did she show.
Only her optimistic self was on display.

After days having gone by, she decided to
Go back to the mall with the one shoe on her child.
She found it to be odd, but she went with her gut.
People would think that she was some kind of a nut,
But her own intuition rendered her beguiled
By the provident universe’s point of view.

When she got to the mall with her child with one shoe,
She was in the right mood for receptivity.
Ignoring her self-consciousness, she went along
With the knowing inside her that nothing was wrong.
Then some teenaged girls approached her excitedly
With the lost shoe’s location. This story is true.

Once You Stop Looking For It, It Finds You

Stop Searching

A baby with just one shoe… now that’s an odd thing
To behold in a stroller at the shopping mall.
What is this mother thinking? Is she not aware
That the child’s shoe is missing? Indeed she must care
That it is. It’s apparent that she’s dropped the ball.
What is she doing to well protect her offspring?

A few days ago actually it’s been gone.
She was at the same mall, and she search everywhere
She could think of without any kind of success.
In a while she decided to give up the stress
It was causing her. By her not choosing to bear
Any blame, she has her spirit to rely on.

No longer in a negative state, she received
And impulse to return to the mall with her child
Wearing only the one shoe. This seemed to her strange,
She went with her gut. The universe did arrange
But the perfect encounter, and she got a wild
Stoke of luck that would otherwise not be believed.

A group of teenaged girls wondered by, and one said
With excitement upon seeing the little one,
“The other shoe’s in the lady’s room at Macys.”
Then one offered to get it. Events such as these
Are available to everyone. Do not shun
What comes to you by impulse. Act on it instead.
