I Like to Read
It’s weird how things start happening when you start to believe in something.
I’d just finished reading the book “Angels in my hair”. I’d always been curious about angels. I’ve always wanted to read more about them. I’ve wanted to hear people’s experiences and i’ve wanted to read Science’s perspective on supernatural beings/things.
I have always believed in the existence of a higher Superpower because of the way i was raised by my parents but was never quite taught anything about angels.
Reading that book made me think; a lot. There were numerous instances in the book where the author asks the reader to pay attention to signs that might lead us to at least start thinking about the existence of angels and the assurance that they do listen to you.
The other day i got home from work and went to check my mail. I was feeling particularly sad that day for no specific reason. I was just really down and felt hopeless about my future and life in general. Okay so, when i was on my way back to my apartment suite from the mailbox area, my eye caught a little sparkly heart that lay on the floor. I picked it up and took it with me; thinking it might simply have fallen off of something but it also made me think about the fact that hearts arr supposed to be filled with love and maybe i was being reminded to not feel lost and hopeless and that at some point in my life, hopefully soon, i’d feel that love.
At another instance that just happened half an hour ago; i was offloading my work truck and was feeling really really thirsty. All morning i’d been kicking myself for not bringing my water bottle with me from home but this guy Chris who calls me ‘son’ appeared out of nowhere with a bottle of water asking me to remember to stay hydrated while joking about seemingly never approaching spring.
The other day, i think it was about a couple of weeks ago when the temperature had dropped to -48C and i was unbuckling my flat bed load. I was thinking about what had happened to me and my family 5 years ago leading me to the position that i am in right now. I felt that life was unfair and that God had been unjust to me. I was so lost in these thoughts that the cold didn’t even bother me. But then, someone from the receiving department (whom I didn’t know) walked besides me and exclaimed “Jesus Kid! How the hell did ya show up to work today. None of my guys did. I am proud of you son but try to stay warm”; chuckling away he wandered off.
I’ve had other numerous other instances where something out of the blue has given hope to me. Now I don’t know if these are mere co incidences or something more but i’ve got to admit that it has made me somewhat believe in angels or God or i I don’t know what. Even though this belief is hesitant and almost secretive, but just the very existence of it keeps me upbeat. It just makes me feel that maybe there is some sort of “universal power” that’s looking after me, that’s looking after you, all of us. Maybe or maybe not but it keeps me from feeling hopeless.
