Don's Bad Luck, by Mark Tulin
18/10/2019
Don’s wife left him last year for another man and recently filed for divorce. Now that his wife’s gone, he’s unable to afford his beautiful new dream house, and it is in foreclosure. Worst of all, the court restricts his visits with his two children to every other weekend.
But this morning, Don found a white feather at his doorstep. He remembered that his grandmother always said that a white feather is a sign of good things to come. Don picked up the feather, put it in his lapel, and went to work. Later that day, Don got a promotion.


Loved that, Mark! Reminded me of my own messenger of good tidings–the butterfly.
Ah, butterflies are so healing, Rosaliene. 🦋🦋
I’ll remember this story from now on when I see a white feather. Thanks for that, Mark!
🙂👌🏻
