Tomorrow is St Patrick's Day and one of the most recognizable icons for St Paddy's is the shamrock. It's a three leafed clover and is commonly associated with Ireland and it's people. I remember, as a child, searching for hours for the elusive four leafed clover. While the four leaf is thought of as lucky, the shamrock is looked upon as a Christian symbol, designating the Holy Trinity. St Patrick used it to describe the Trinity, asking followers if it were 1 leaf or 3. When they answered that it was both one and three, it led right into his explanation of the Trinity.
Do you celebrate St Patrick's Day? If so, how? What does the day mean to you--is it just about wearing green and partying or does it hold some special significance?
Your comments--priceless!!
