Angel Feathers

Ever since Mowgli passed away I've been finding little feathers. 
Every little feather reminds me of him. 
When he died I read in a book that finding feathers means your angel is visiting you.
It also helps that every single feather I find, is colored the same as his coat was. 

I may be stretching this belief a bit to fit my own personal needs,
but I don't see anything wrong with that.

I find the feathers at the most random times, 
and especially when I need to see them most.

The other day, 
with all the woes of the car.
I went to the grocery store. 
I wanted to buy chocolate, sprite and potato chips.
(my comfort foods)

On my way to the drink section I found a blue grey little feather, 
sitting on the floor between the cans of coke and the grape juice.
I gasped and picked it up, very excitedly.
Brad said, "Aww Mowgli knows you need him. He IS always with you."




I hid my tears, (like I'm doing now..)
I was already a wreck from crying all day, 
and I'm sure the people from the supermarket already had an eye 
on the girl who collected things from the grocery store floor.

So, I put it in my pocket.
Payed for my groceries and left.
Coincidentally, feeling light as a feather.
