Welcome to my new blog. There is a story behind its name. One of my friends in San Diego was a crusty old man with an incredibly beautiful spirit. Whenever he\u2019d say good bye he\u2019d smile broadly and say, \u2018Angels on your shoulders!\u2019 At the time I thought it was cute but certainly never expected to write a book about angels.
\nI am so blessed that I now have the opportunity to show people how to connect with the angels and other celestial beings that always surround us and are so willing to help even though we so seldom acknowledge their presence. Anyone familiar with my work knows that I am very concrete, practical and grounded. Angels can be presented in an airy, fairy way or we can learn to make them an integral part of our lives, using them to help us feel loved and safe enough to risk opening our hearts and our minds to the limitless possibilities life holds.
\nWriting a book on angels wasn’t particularly on my list of ‘to dos’ but when my agent asked me if I would be interested in writing this encyclopedia I answered with a resounding YES. Writing this book has been such an incredible gift in my life and hopefully it will be in the lives of its readers. I feel like a messenger delivering a reminder that anything is possible and that hope, joy, love, laughter, magic and miracles can become the basis of our everyday lives.
\nThis blog will be a collection of ‘feel good’ stories, practical ways to improve the quality of your life and hopefully your stories as well. Over the years I have collected emails, often by anonymous authors that offer profound insights and expand the way I think about life. So if you have a story or questions feel free to e mail me at susan@angelsonyourshoulder.com<\/a>. I look forward to getting to know you and sharing the love, light and laughter angels always bring with them.
\nRemember angels can fly because they take themselves lightly and there are always “Angels on your shoulder!”
\nWith love and aloha,
\nSusan
