Angels, and living each day as your last. |

I've always been fascinated with angels.
Even one of my mules is named "Angel Allerisse", signifying my obsession.
When I was younger, I always read about guardian angels. They were supposed to be in charge of looking after small children, guiding them and giving them clues about what is good, and keeping them from harm. My mom also told me at that age that angels can also be the souls of our loved ones, and they choose to watch over those of us remaining on earth, because they miss us from heaven.
I've always loved those stories, and I still love them.
Now that I am an adult, I love reading more literature about them, specially the Archangels. My birthday is in April, and that month hails the Archangel Micheal (the likeness of God) as its special angel. I've recently been reading about Gabriel (the strength of God) too, and Raphael (of healing), Uriel (of light) and many others. Some dark literature concerning Azrael and Abbadon too...
I've been reading about the Book of Revelations, in connection with this, some excerpts from the Bible. That book is generally referred to as the book on the "Apocalypse", wherein the worlds of heaven, hell and earth are brought together for a final confrontation between good and evil. A lot of people perceive it as something frightening or scary. This book reminds us that the end will eventually come someday, and asks us whether we have lived our lives to the fullest, and if we are satisfied with our lives once that day comes.
Am I satisfied with my life?
Previously, I would have said no. But now, I am so happy to say that I would answer the opposite. I must admit that I am oftentimes a horrible person, but I believe that I have always tried my best to suppress that side of mine. I am so happy to be with my family and friends, and I am doing what I have loved since I was in kindergarten. My course is difficult, but I am so grateful for the opportunity to help serve justice to those who cannot avail of it. If I looked back on my life, I can honestly say that while my life is not perfect, I am happy to have lived it, ad would not change it.
When that time comes, I just hope that I can smile in death, and still be with the people I loved in life.
The same way that I hope that I will still see those who are dear to my heart, who have passed on.
They are the most real angels to me now.
