Have you ever felt the presence of the angels among us?

I thought I would never say YES, but the older I get, the stronger their presence was. Every time I needed a voice of reason in my life there they were, everytime I needed a helping hand there they were.

Sometimes you have to let the pain grow apart from your head, that doesn’t mean that it’ll go away, but at least when pain can let you see more clearly, and understand that there is no need for you to go on mourning for your unhappiness and feeling sorry for yourself, when you understand this it’s when you can see that everytime you need them, angels come to you.

I believe that there are different kinds of angels, those who guard the doors of heaven, those that God sent to guard us and those who God allowed to live among us, the last kind is the one I’m referring in this writing, the angels that live and breathe among us, those we all call FRIENDS. I believe that a good friend can be compare to an angel, why? Simply because angels are suppose to look up for us, to listen to us, to cry with us and laugh with us, and usually when you find a good friend a good person to walk the path of life with, that is what you get in return: LOYALTY.

A friend could be your husband, your mother, father, brother, sister or just someone God had prepared for you along the way, and its spectacular to have him/her by your side, but the most challenging thing of all is to preserve that friendship for years, take care of it and most of all giving back every inch of love and loyalty that you get, its not paying for something, it’s called FRIENDSHIP.

I would like to dedicate this few lines to my angels, my good friends, those friends that have been with me through all my winnings and most important beside me through all my loses, those loyal angels that always have a word of wisdom a laugh to share a tear to accompany mine. Thank you for being there for me.

So if you could be certain of one thing is that angels are always in our presence, you just have to believe it and really understand the meaning and importance of a friend!

What is a "Life lesson"?

Most of the people I know would agree that God, the Universe, inner energy or whatever the name you want to give that supreme being in which every person believes, is trying to teach everyone lessons or that life itself has a plan to make each and everyone of us a better one.

When you go through life thinking that everything that happens to you has a reason, sometimes that kinds of makes it easier, but in the end its always the same…everything that happens to you was meant to happened from the beginning, no matter what is you do or say: what’s meant to happened it’s going to happened.

Sometimes I wonder if the phrase “what’s meant to happened is going to happened” it’s not just an excuse made by the always optimistic people to help those who goes through a difficult experience and that are obviously not so optimistic.

Maybe you are thinking by now that I’m not saying anything new, but honestly how many times have you wondered that you could actually change anything by changing something you’ve done, something you’ve said or why not? Something you thought; I bet every time something negative comes or happens in your life, at least I do.

Albert Einstein said once: “Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." And I wonder, maybe we all are a rare mixture between an intelligent fool and a genius, because we tend to make things bigger or more complicated than what they really are, I guess it’s in our human nature to do it, because the more we find something harder to get, the more we want it, and that’s exactly the point in which we can become obsessed and most of the times that’s when life ALWAYS gives it’s lesson…it’s up to each and everyone of us to take it or just pass it and keep getting them, the easy way or the hard way!

Journeys

“Journeys end in lovers meetings” – Shakespeare – who wouldn’t like to have taken one journey with one ending… but I guess only few are lucky enough to have taken the right journey and made the right stop finding their only end they needed in their lives.

But for those who haven’t found the ending to their journeys, don’t despair and enjoy every journey just because at the end each journey you take is just a fantastic adventure, full of different lessons, because every time you begin a new journey, every time you begin to walk a path alone and in the way you end up meeting someone, even if it’s not your ending yet, the love you experience along the way will always end up being an extraordinary experience.

But keep in mind that just as love comes into your life without expecting it, it can also disappear and leave you with that feeling of emptiness inside. It seems like if there were some kind of unwritten rules that apply only to those who haven’t found their final ending. For some quite inexplicably, love just happens to vanish, for others love is simply lost in the way, but in the end they all end up alone, just as they started their journey.

Along their path some may find all kinds of love, even when it’s not the one that will make them stop their journey, at the end is always love, but among all the kinds of love, there is one that we all are afraid to face, the cruellest kind, the one that kills all of its victims, that is of course the unrequited love…the one that I'm sure most of the people who are kindly reading this have had in a moment of their lives.

I've always thought that love stories are always between two people, both in love with each other, both needing one another, but what about those who love, but don’t get love in return? What happened to them? What should they do? I guess embrace the inevitable: move on and carry on with their own path, hoping that one day they’ll find a journey that leads them to their own final ending, because in the end, the only thing that really matters is to give your best and be passionate about all the things you do, because you never know when will your ending will knock on your door!
