Earth Angels

I met an angel tonight. We've been hardwired to associate 'angels' with heavenly bodies of light with wings and a halo above their heads but no.. The angel I met was neither ephemeral nor was she a dark shadow bearing a resemblance of the 'Grim Reaper'. She was very much human, just like you and me.
Having spent much of the evening during a dinner party talking to her, I am re-assured that there is still good in this world and it doesn't matter if you are "only one of many" trying to do good in this crazy world. The important thing is that you ARE making it happen and not waiting around for something to happen.
In this season of giving and caring, what better way than to re-pledge oneself to helping God's creatures especially our less fortunate bretheren? There are many worthy causes out there who are grateful for generous contributions, be in terms of money or effort.
"Be the change that you want to see happen"
