Don't "Just" Believe In Your Angel !!!

"They" say that faith is believing without seeing.

"They" use that as a hook to get you to believe in a named deity or a named prophet. 

As for me, I do believe. But not because anyone tells me to. Not because anyone has deemed that believing without seeing means that I have faith. Because I feel it. I feel it in every cell and deep within my heart. 

If you are a believer, then you know how it feels. If not, let me explain. I'll be brief.

Today, I was out for my first morning walk. It's a beautiful Fall day here. Deepest of sparkling turquoise skies. No clouds. Cool breeze. Perfect conditions. 

I heard a helicopter. It was loud. Everyone heard it. I looked up. 

I couldn't see it, but I could still hear it. It must have been very high in the atmosphere for me to not see it, but a helicopter's unmistakable noise can be loud. This one hovered in the area for about a minute then gradually pulled away to the south. 

Have you ever been in a storm? A storm where winds blow fiercely onto your whole body and you must struggle against the wind? You can't see the wind but man, you can certainly feel it. 

That's what faith is. It's more than believing--it's knowing. Knowing because you really can feel it. 

When I come across a feather on my path, I can feel it. My heart gives a little blip of pleasure and recognition that it's a reminder from my angel that he really is nearby and that he really is with me. Still. Forever with me. I don't need to "believe" that he is here. I can see. I can feel. I can know. 

And, of course, so can you. All it takes is being open to experiencing the continuation of your loved one in your present existence. Reminders. Signs. A present memoir of eternal love. The only ones who do not receive reminders from their angels are those people who approach the situation with a closed mind, a closed heart. Don't let that be you!

Today and every day, be open to the eternal love that is your angel and your own eternal nature. Recognize your eternity and you'll recognize your angel's continuing presence in your life, right now and forever. Death can't claim your beloved because love never dies. Love. Never. Dies.

About the Author
I lost my husband in January 2015. He was my stars. He was my everything. I write memories to help me deal with grief--a grief I was not prepared to face. I never would have been ready to say "Goodbye" but I also never would have gauged the depth of grief to be so deep. I hope my poems can help others realize they are not alone in the loss of a beloved family member.
I'm Grieving, Now What?
