The following are
various definitions of the word angel. An angel is a person of exemplary
conduct or virtue. An angel is a guardian of human beings. An angel is a person
having qualities such as beauty, purity or kindness.
What happened to
images of angels, these pure otherworldly beings? When I think of angel images,
I think about the pictures hanging on the walls in my grandma's house. Yes, the
one of the two children walking and the angel protecting them. Classic image but I yearn for more.
I was brought up
with a guardian angel. My parents told me that there was always an angel
protecting me. This thought, this belief, allowed me to sleep some nights as a
child. When I was scared, I knew that I had an angel of good near me, watching
over me and warding off any negative entities that intended to do me harm. You
have a guardian angel too.
Now, do angels have
to be otherworldly or can they be human just like us? Sure, no human is perfect
but think about a human being who has treated you with respect, care, joy and
love. When you are around them, you feel happiness and peace. Visualize with
me, an image of that human… now, give them angel wings. Big, beautiful, strong
angel wings and a halo over their head. For some reason, I always think of this
man. I don’t know him very well but he has always thanked me for bringing light
into his life by just being me. He is an angel to me. He may have done some
wrong but to me and my image, that doesn’t matter. I see him and all the good
he has shown me.
I love using this
visualization method. Try to visualize a boss, who has been instrumental in
your professional growth, as an angel. They have been an angel to you.
They have offered you guidance and
protection along your professional
journey. What about a parent or grandparent who has had your back no matter
what! They are truly and angel of love to you.
