There Are Angels Everywhere

I ran into an old lady the other day.

We chatted for a couple hours as I sanded the cabinet drawers of a bathroom I am remodeling for a friend. She was an absolute hoot; a spirit of pure fire. She was a blinding light of passion, love, and fearlessness.

We talked and laughed. We both immensely enjoyed each others company.

She eventually had to leave abruptly for a meeting, and quickly hurried off.

I momentarily freaked out, as I realized we had not exchanged names.I felt bummed that I hadn’t done so. Later I realized our names didn’t matter, because our souls had just touched for a while.

I later found out that she had terminal brain cancer, and would soon be gone.

No matter who you meet each day, remember to treat them with the upmost love and respect. You do not know what they may be dealing with, or what they have endured.

We are all special and deserving of love.

We may be old and set in our ways, we may be young and quick to change.

We may have lost, we may have endured.

We can always choose to lift each other up and touch a soul. Sometimes both reach out to touch the other, like the lady I met.

Our names did not matter, but that moment did.
