You have to imagine, I was in the Choctaw back country with sundown on its way and somewhat lost. Maps had me go to several incorrect locations which left me in areas without service or a map. Luckily I am resourceful and retraced my route to a small nursery and tracked down the owner. With her help, she directed me down the road to the rural cemetery. It was quite large and without a clue where to look I just kept walking the rows methodically. I was tired and worn out and called out loud for a sign from the Universe. As O passed an oak tree, several oak seed pods dripped and bounced a row down. When I explored what had made the sound and had dropped, it was at my great grandparents gravesite. Thank you Universe.” (Heather Houston 3-30-26)
