The Someones---Angels On This Earth

"The Someones....Angels On This Earth"


    I once saw a man offer to take a homeless man into a restaurant and get him something to eat other than "discarded" food!   (That day he ate quite well!)
    I once saw someone offer to pay for a woman's groceries because she was very short of money!    (She cried the real tears of JOY!)
    I once saw someone give a man some shoes and socks to cover his bare feet in the winter!   (A warm heart gesture to warm someone's feet!)
    I once saw someone give a woman a coat so she would stop digging in the dumpster trying to put papers on herself to stay warm!    (Another warm heart gesture!)

                      { The Someones.....Those Are Angels On This Earth!}

    I once saw someone come to the aid of a woman being mistreated by her boyfriend!    (The boyfriend...an "unk" with a "p"!)
    I once saw someone stop to help a man who was pushing his own car trying to get it out of traffic!   (He was really relieved)
    I once saw someone help an elderly woman with a walker get across the street after the light had changed!   (She afterwards held his hand in both of her hands!)
    I once saw someone run to direct the traffic after an accident!    (He was pretty good at it!)

                      {The Someones.....Those Are Angels On This Earth!}

    I once saw someone save and give a child "CPR" who was underwater too long in a pool!   (The child survived!)
    I once saw someone stand up to a bully who was "much" larger than his intended victim!   ( The bully backed down quickly!)
    I once saw someone giving solace to a woman who had just lost her husband by just sitting quietly with her!    (The quietness spoke in thunderous volume!)
    I once saw someone give a vet who was in a wheelchair a "high five" and make his day!   (He didn't know him!)

                       {The Someones.....Those Are Angels On This Earth!}

    I once saw someone tell a child that they could be anything they wanted to be if they just believed in themselves!    (There should be more of that!)
    I once saw someone catch a purse snatcher, "throttle" him, and return the purse to the woman it was taken from!    (Justice on the spot!)
    I once saw someone carry two children out of a house on fire to safety!   (I know this....I was one of them!)
    I once saw someone tell someone that they were loved!....And they smiled!

                      {The Someones.....Those Are Angels On This Earth!}
