Calling all Angels

I've noticed a lot of people lately posting angel pics online. I personally believe that we all have angels close to us at all times. I also believe that if we allow ourselves to be open to it, we can feel their presence around us. I for one have been feeling mine on a regular basis. Even had a little white feather fall on me in the kitchen the other day. I have nothing with feathers any where close to the kitchen.  Seems lately there has also been a lot of deaths close to me. Either through a friend or another family member. Not sure if that is because I'm getting older or if some how the 2 things are tied together. Age and/or the angels showing reason for their presence.

I would like to share a story about how our higher power (whatever you choose to call yours) works behind the scenes on our behalf. My Aunt & a close friend of hers (both widows) decided to take a trip out of town just to get away for a little bit. While there they struck up conversation with another couple staying at the same hotel. They were discussing a concert at the local casino that was going on. The couple sharing how they were going & how much they paid for their tickets. Later that afternoon my Aunt & her friend decided to try to get tickets as well. They were successful & got their tickets for much less than the couple paid. They tried to find the couple at the concert & were unsuccessful. They thought maybe at breakfast they could share their news about getting to attend the same show. Again, no luck. My Aunt & her friend decided to pack up & head home. While my Aunt was loading the car she thought she had heard her name called, but when she looked up no one was around. She continued packing her things & every time she went in to see if her friend was ready, her friend was not around. Getting a little worried my Aunt started asking the clerk if she had seen her friend...Just then my Aunt spotted her friend coming out of a room that was not theirs & crying. It was the couples room they had friended while staying there. The husband had died! Now see folks, God knew what this poor woman was about to experience & he sent 2 angels in the flesh to show love (hope) & encouragement (strength). As they have already been where she is (experience). There is no such thing as coincidence.

Every problem comes to break us or make us. The choice is ours. We all have a story to tell and share with others. We all have a purpose in life. ALL of us!

I have endured abuse both mental & physical. Neglect & abandonment etc etc etc. While I have not had it as bad as other's, nor had it as easy as some it's my life's journey & story to be shared. I choose to share my experience, strength & hope through this blog. My ONLY wish is that it helps just one person. And that, this person finds the courage to not give up & embrace all they experience in their life. Both good & bad. Then pay it forward to share their experience, strength & hope with another.

When we question our purpose in life with all the how's & why me, just remember all things for a reason...both good & bad. Without one we cannot know the other. And without our stories we cannot have strength & hope to share with others. Your story is yours & yours alone. You may catch yourself saying..."my experiences won't help someone else."  Quite the contrary. Good or bad this is our overall purpose in life. To help each other & help make this life/world a better place while we are here. Trust that our higher power ALWAYS comes through for us. Call on your angels to help if you need to. They are right by our side. Calling all angels.

As always please remember the men & woman of all branches of the military in your prayers. As they are out there protecting our HEALTHY FREEDOMS here at home. God bless.
