A shiny new coin for a new beginning by Deborah Lockett .....

The latest coin, which I found yesterday, is shiny and new...

... just as well, because night had just fallen and I had only the floodlights of the park to see it by. I was just entering the park on my bike, on my way from Ángel's (Valentina's boyfriend's) flat where I spend my days, to the Municipal Hostel for the Homeless where I spend my nights.

It was a "classic" find, a one-cent piece which my front bike tyre rode over; it looks so shiny as to hardly have been touched by human hand. The date of minting is tiny but looks like 2008.

The message with the coin? A new coin, a new beginning -- just like the little slim slither of a new moon that appeared high in the sky when I was evicted from my flat recently, and went to the Hostel.

That new moon has been over for a while now, but with this coin there's yet another new beginning... I feel it's a settling of my relationship with Ángel, whom I love dearly but he has no idea of it and often gets upset by what I do in my efforts to help around his flat. Maybe it's time now to dare to hope that the situation between us will carry on settling down and getting better, and better, and better, as my heart so much desires...

I'll be back when the next coin turns up!
