During two years of a painful period in my life I couldn't seem to get out of a psychological 'funk.' I tried everything to make me feel better. Therapy. Disaster. The therapist ended up crying; hence, the end of the therapy. Exercise. Too thin I was told by my family, but I felt fit. Running, pilates followed by bike riding. Perfect. If I could only do that now. Gave it up and gained weight from eating too many Mrs. Fields chocolate chip oatmeal cookies that nowadays I bake and ship to everyone else. Baking and cooking are definite forms of calming therapy for me.
Finally, I called my Irish Catholic sister-in-law and asked her where to get a St. Rita's medal. Following her laughing fit, she picked me and took me to a Catholic trinket shop. Wall to wall religious paraphernalia. Literally. I walked to a case on the counter and saw my options. I bought the least expensive silver medal. What a beauty. Believe it or not, wearing this medal around my neck instantly made me feel at ease. I need her now, but can't find her. She probably rests with other Jewelry I have hidden for safe keeping and now can't find those pieces, as well. Dilemma.
What do I do. I know!!! I pray to St. Anthony! Another G-dsend. Trust me. He works. My friend, E, introduced me to St. Anthony several years ago. St. Anthony finds lost things. E swears by the mystery of St. Anthony. She told me several stories of miracles for her own needs. Lost diamonds in the snow [2x], keys and other items. Of course, I have used St. Anthony in the past. However, I have not been able to get him to help me find St. Rita. Perhaps, the two saints clash and are unable to work together. Perhaps, I have to step higher to find a Saint. Who knows, but, I need her now. Please send her back!
