When I look into a babies eyes I see the presence of angels and feel a profound sense of gratitude, wonder and awe. I know magic and miracles exist and have faith in all that is wonderful about this world. Of course when I walk around feeling that way it is wonderful to watch people respond to my energy. It certainly seems like everyone smiles at me and the world is just a happier place.<\/p>\n

When I am angry, rushing, surly I often get very different reactions from people. The world really is a big mirror in which our inner world is reflected back to us. So if you are seeing a lot of angry people does that mean you are an angry person?<\/p>\n


\nNor necessarily, especially if you are able to smile in the presence of their anger. You can be the miracle in someone else’s life. Years ago I was taking my dog for a walk. I had no money and had just found out I would be losing my job. As I walked along a woman smiled warmly at me and then I looked up at the mountains and I saw a rainbow. In  that moment I knew everything would be fine. That woman’s smile changed my life.<\/p>\n

Be someone’s angel today. Help someone carry their packages, open a door, smile a lot. You may never know what kind of a difference your act of kindness makes but I can guarentee a ripple of love creates far different results than snarling at people as they walk by.<\/p>\n

Commit random acts of kindness on a daily basis, be an angel and your life will be a better place to live.<\/p>\n

With love and aloha,
\nSusan<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.<\/p>\n

Make Angels on Your Shoulder<\/a> part of your daily routine and share it with a friend!<\/p>\n
