A dog that helped me find my keys

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

One  day, on a beach run,  I realized  I  was  missing my  car  keys.  I knew that they  had fallen out of my  pocket.

I was standing on the beach thinking,  hmm,  I  am really  curious  to see how this  will turn out and started running  two miles  back to my  car.  The ocean  washed out any traces of my  footprints,  I was hopelessly  scanning  the waves  and  sand with no  keys in sight.

As I  was running , I thought,  I have to look for a message telling me where they are… and  a thought came to mind  ” They are close to the car.”  My  curiosity grew.  ”Tell  me  more, ” I asked the voice ” I  need more details.”  ”Just forget your keys  and don’t worry..” was the answer

I  got back to  the car and found the car door   unlocked   even though I  remembered that  I had  locked  it… The wallet  and my cell  phone  were still  in the glove  box.   At least this was  some  good news.  It looked like  someone opened the car with the key…    I asked  people around and looked with no luck.

Disappointed,   I  sat down on the beach and  watched a  group  of   teens  body surfing, playing like  a bunch  of  rowdy  dolphins in the waves.  I lost  my  keys,  I thought,   what  a drag…  I wondered  if the Universe would send me  another signal.

Suddenly, a heard a dog barking to my right. I  quickly  turned  following the bark  and there they were, about 10 meters away,  my keys hanging on a root of a tree.

I was amazed. A dog had helped me find my  keys!!!

What  is the moral of this story? If you keep your ears and eyes opens, the Universe will tell you what the next step is…
