Do you remember the first time you heard about angels? When you were a young child did you ever wonder about your guardian angel? Did your believe you were kept safe by angels?<\/p>\n

Have you every heard this prayer?<\/p>\n

Bless the bed I lay on.
\nFour corners around my bed
\nFour angels around my head.
\n1 to watch
\n1 to pray
\n2 to take my soul away<\/p>\n


\nDo you remember what your thoughts were about angels when you were young? Did you believe in them? Did you allow yourself to feel their presence? Did you ever see one? I remember seeing a bright white light in the corner of my room one night and being absolutely terrorized until I realized what it was. At first I had no idea what it was but then I was curious and begin to feel safe and loved. <\/p>\n

We are spiritual beings having a physical experience. We are not human beings trying to have a spiritual experience. We seem to spend a lot of our lives searching for who and what we are. We question what our life’s purpose is and why we are here.<\/p>\n

Angels are just angels. They are angels body, mind and soul. They don’t try to be angels they just are. They are simply angels. What if you just allowed yourself to be the spiritual being that you are and learn to enjoy your human form.<\/p>\n

I truly believe we are here on earth to remember our spiritual nature, to wake up to who and what we really are and then have fun.<\/p>\n

Life is a gift best savored in the moment.<\/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
