Our mutual friend Alibb has started a new Alphabet Crazy Challenge.
I thought of something immediately as I read her post. An angel of course. I have them all around me. Both visible and invisible. I definitely believe in angels.
The photo I chose for this challenge is a special angel I have inside. It was a gift from a special friend not long after losing Dustin. And it still, to this day brings me peace when I look at it. Reminds me a little of my son actually. Angels have become a huge part of my life.
I know there may be many who do not believe. But when you lose a child, or experience other tragedies and losses in life, you have to find something to hold onto, to believe in. This is called survival. And it is different for each one of us.
Angels, bluebirds, butterflies, hummingbirds, and many others are what keep me going.

Lovely angel photo, I have been wanting to draw angels for a long time. Yes, I believe angels are real.
This is the first I have heard of it. Yay, what a great idea. You do have a lot of angels around to shoot now don’t ya! I need to go look for this challenge. Im in!
There is a link above in my post. She posted it yesterday and I thought it was a great idea. Yes, I keep angels around.
lol funny I didn’t notice that bright purple link.. I already find it, but still havent posted for it yet. I am trying to find an A in nature… Might be hard..
I believe we have Angels all around us.
Glad to know that Dawn, thanks.
Cool, so we have another interesting challenge here!
Yes, I have to keep a list so I can try to keep up. 🙂
Each of us cling on to something that brings back memories. I can understand your love for this Angel.
Thank you Grace, I agree with you.
My wife collects figurines of angels that she received as gifts.
That is great Alex. Thank you for the comment.
I agree, Carol. With all the losses we have experienced, we must have something that holds us upright.
Yes we do understand more than most. If we have nothing we cannot survive.
I am not faithful and I hope you do not mind me because I do not believe in angels … but I will argue that it is not possible … maybe even the angels kept me from surviving quite a few terrible engine crashes …… and I have nothing against those who believe, dear Carol … we are different
You are fine. I only believe because I feel it is the only connection to my son I lost. It is what I have to hold onto to survive. We are all different.
I totally understand and sympathize with you, dear Carol …. if it helps you I don’t see anything wrong
A lovely angel and a heartwarming story. I truly believe in angels and know they are nearby watching over us especially Guardian Angles.
Thank you, I have angels all around me, literally.
Yes, the invisible guardian angels are all around us, or so I believe.
Thank you for a heartfelt entry and lovely photo.
You are so very welcome. I enjoyed it.
What a way to start with a positive and inspiring entry!!
Thanks for the great start for the challenge!
You know you’re an angel on Virily too! 🙂
You are welcome and thank you for the challenge. How kind of you my friend.
So, with your challenge, do we post something new each week with the next letter?
Agree, A for angel, and sorry, how’s the challenge going on? B for the whole next week?
