I originally said, "Thank you for your comments Wind Woman, expressed so eloquently. Yes, I had originally meant to say that it could be as simple as sharing a smile or giving someone a hug. Blessings, Elly" :) <3elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-87588238548040647522012-02-10T19:39:56.309-08:002012-02-10T19:39:56.309-08:00Aweee, thanks Elly Pie! ***blushing***

I had written this post relatively quickly being a busy season and all and my original title came to me intuitively, "Calling All Angels, Earth Angels that Is!" However, I didn't feel that this captured the essence of what I was going to write so I changed it to this simple title.elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-12352242054064702102011-12-22T17:56:12.490-08:002011-12-22T17:56:12.490-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-7013930667825175942011-12-20T18:34:39.951-08:002011-12-20T18:34:39.951-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-3435030635068855842011-12-15T03:29:15.763-08:002011-12-15T03:29:15.763-08:00Elly, your post makes me think of earth angels I&#...Elly, your post makes me think of earth angels I've encountered in my life thus far. Some of these, I encountered over 40 years ago, yet I've always remembered their special brand of kindness. One magical feature of an earth angel can be that they enter and leave your life within a very short time span - as in a few minutes, or a few hours. An angel can be a stranger who provides a smile from a loving heart at just the person who needs to receive that gift on a difficult day. An angel can be an innocent child who reminds us of the child we hold within our own being and enables us to feel our own innocence again. An angel can be a beloved pet. My daughter had a huge, gentle English mastiff who assumed the role of being her bodyguard. I looked at him one day and said "I know who you are, Rupert. You're an angel, aren't you?" His sentient, piercing look into my eyes was all the answer I needed. <br />You ask how we are earth angels to others. We have our ways, don't we... I know I've been one for certain folks, often people I don't know, in 20-second encounters, and it's given me a quiet joy. I believe it costs nothing to be kind. Simple consideration of others can have an angelic effect. I'm not out here to earn any wings, I'm simply grateful for the levity Life offers; for the feathers I feel so often fanning the air around me; and for the entire cherubim on high as well as the cherubim here on our earthly plane. <br />Botticelli painted a beautiful rendition of angels in The Mystic Nativity - his angels have a way of enlightening even the heaviest of hearts. May yours be lifted, in love.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039541227560240903noreply@blogger.com
