Passing Angels

I believe there are people you meet in your life
Who are there to pave the way
For you to reach your destiny.
These people are sent to you in times of need
To encourage you
To motivate you
To inspire you
To remind you who you really are.
These people are angels who walk among us
Maybe they don’t even know what they are doing
Maybe it’s just a chance remark
Or even just a passing smile
That reaches you just when you need it the most.
You see, it doesn’t have to be something dramatic
It could be the simplest of gestures
That boosts your soul when you need it most.
Something that lifts your spirits
Something that reminds you that life is good
And life is worth living.
And you never know when one of these angels will cross your path.
The best thing is anyone can be an angel
To uplift and inspire
All it takes is to spread a little kindness
In a world that can seem dark and cold.
So next time you pass by someone who seems down and distressed
Just give them a friendly smile or a simple hello
Today, you could be their passing angel.
