Who would have thought that a horse shoe could be a family legacy? It’s not that my family loves and owns horses but there is a story behind the horse shoe and it’s worth telling. My grandparents have 8 kids, one of them is my mom. Back then, my grandfather’s job isn’t enough to feed all of them and that went on for quite a long time.

One day, out of nowhere, my grandfather saw a horse shoe in the streets and that was when he was able to get a decent job with a good pay. Promotions and salary increases came in in the family. To support 8 kids isn’t easy but my grandparents were able to send them all to college and all eight of them graduated. My grandfather believes that it was the horse shoe who brought all the luck into the family.

Until today, that horse shoe is still displayed in our house. It may or may not be true but the horse shoe will always be a? reminder that life can get better and better.
