Margaret Thatcher, England's former Prime Minister once said, "Pennies do not come from heave. They have to be earned here on earth." While the concept of earning your keep shows us the importance of hard work, many have a different theory.
In the June 29th, 2009 issue of Women's World, There is a story titled, "My Guardian angel," and readers were able to share their stories. One story, titled "Pennies from Heaven," a reader shares how while helping her friend sell her mother's house after her passing, pennies kept showing up all over. While showing the house, the potential buyer found a whole handful of pennies, which helped both girls have a good feeling about the buyer.
Three years later, our reader was asked to help sell the house again. With the markets taking a turn for the worse, the woman didn't know if it was possible, but as she was leaving the house, she found a few pennies in the exact same spot she had years before, letting her know her friends mother was still watching over her and the house. Contrary to Margaret Thatcher, they belive, "if you find coins frequently, or in odd places, it's likely that someone you have lost is saying, 'Hello-I love you!' The angels say, 'Always trust the feelings and thoughts that accompany an unusual sighting of coins-they truly are pennies from heaven!' "
So, I guess that leaves it up to you to decide, and maybe, both are in fact true. Nothing can substitute for good hard work, but some times, pennies can be your guardian angel's way of letting you know they are there.
