Many Faces of Angels

We all relate to angels as cherubic little people but that is not all together true

There are angels inside of tall lanky men who look like they have no care in the world but have had an angel enter their hearts because of their own pain and suffering which has helped to make them such caring and loving people

The rough and tough man who looks like nothing could bother or hurt him who is a sweet soul that has also had his own pain and  suffering and would hold a heart gently to keep it from hurting.

The ordinary man who has had no hardship but inside of him there is an angel's heart and wings beating so strongly that you can see the compassion in his eyes

Individuals like this are out there, not outwardly looking like angels, but the angel wings beat loudly and long inside their fantastic hearts

We all assume the outward appearances are the person but the angels are there

You just need to look for them to find them in the most unlikely people

I have seen my share of angels recently and I am truly blessed
