"The Angel" Written by Myself

   I was walking down the rocky, stiff road of the country just staring at the ground when all of a sudden I look up to see two parallel lights coming straight for me. My hands shifted to my face, but the light was too blinding. I realized it was a car and it was probably about to be the end of my life. The light went black…and that’s all I remembered.

   I lightly opened my eyes and saw that it was very bright. I rubbed my eyes to clear my vision, and noticed that I was looking straight into the eyes of a girl who was the prettiest I ever saw. My facial expression blankened and I could not stop starring at this girl. She wore all white and she had the greatest smile with the most perfect teeth. So white! It was mesmerizing! Her hair was a golden blond and she had the deepest ocean blue eyes! After I had processed this through my brain…which never really did completely finish processing since she was so beautiful, she said to me, “Everything will be okay.” and she let out a slight smile then got up and walked away. She appeared to be so caring; I just couldn’t believe what I was seeing with my eyes.

   I sit up and take a look around after the girl leaves. She was walking up a set of stairs with a golden railing and I just realized, C-c-could I be in heaven!? I saw angelic-looking girls EVERYWHERE! Everyone was wearing white and I even saw a few boys. Some of them were playing the harp and some were reading as they walked. They were all over the place. It was full of them. Some of them wore gold chains and necklaces and there were all kinds of mini trinkets and gadgets. It was so beautiful, it was a place I could stay in forever and never want to leave. In fact, I didn’t want to leave!

   I saw the girl with golden hair and blue eyes again. She was coming toward me. She led a hand gesture telling me to follow her. So I got up and walked toward her. I felt something I could not describe. I’d never felt it before. I felt very happy and I felt like everything was perfect and that everything would be okay. It was just a weird feeling but good at the same time. When I reached the girl she led me up the stairs and then as we got higher it kept getting brighter and brighter. It felt like forever just to get to the top of the stairs, and once we were at the top all I could see was the girl since the light caused everything around me to look all plain white. The girl said directly to me, “My name is Angela. You’ll be okay. It’s just not your time yet.” These words confused me a bit, and as I was trying to think this through, she softly kissed my cheek and then the next thing I know…I’m in my bed! How did this happen?! I thought I was in heaven, but then I now understood why she said, “It’s not your time yet.” and I looked up and smiled.

Merry Christmas! Remember the good things!

Alright! So I haven't made many posts recently due to my super busy schedule, but I would like to be making posts more often; so bear with me.

   So you know those times where you feel so down that nothing will EVER get better? Well, let me tell you. They always get better. A few months ago something tragic happened to me and I thought nothing would ever get better. I pretty much felt like I shouldn't even exist, and I felt like every time things got better they just all of a sudden got worse again. It's the worst feeling.

   Anyway, since this is the Christmas season I'd just like to say that this is a time of year for joy, cheer, and happiness. Why? Well, many people don't understand the real reason, but it's because Christ was born! It's the time to celebrate. It's why people are so happy! There may be more reasons to be happy, but words I remember hearing from the priest the other day, "sadness turns to happiness"... As he was talking the same thoughts came to my mind as he said those exact words there. I used to be sad, but now I'm happy! I mean, it happened. 

   At the end of November I finally told myself I would be happy, and that this year would be the BEST Christmas I'd ever have even though I felt more down than I ever had felt. I was tired of feeling down. When you are determined to have good things happen; they will. That's when my life got better. I stopped worrying about other things and I got my life together again. 

My sadness has turned to happiness this Christmas. It's like a miracle.

   Just keep in mind that no matter how hard life is you can never give up because giving up shows weakness. When you fight through the tough times you end up stronger in the end and it all turns out for the better. Trust me.

   Hope you enjoyed this small incerpt coming from me from my life. Although it's not so detailed, I just wanted to share. And I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas season and a Happy New Year!! Don't let the bad things get to you. Keep the good things in mind. ;)
