On the trip to my parents house I pass by a home that has a big sign sprawling along their fence, it says “the world is full of good people, if you can’t find one, be one.”

I knew this before seeing the sign, but it is a great reminder. Just as is every single ‘good’ person I meet. Good meaning kind. Generous. Compassionate. Considerate. Meaning those who are cognizant of the fact that life is a precious gift that deserves respect, and that all people share that gift.

I have met many in my life – many people who display these qualities and more. And every time I do, I am inspired again, to strive for self-mastery, to be of service to the world.

There is something angelic about these beings. Their grace radiates from them. They neutralize and magnetize towards peace.

This three dimensional world is full of illusion. Here we believe that we are separate beings and that we must fend for ourselves. Often failing to see how our actions today effect the generations to come. But these angels harmonize the opposition. These angels reveal the unity of existence.

These beings create heaven on Earth.

I feel indebted to many people. My immediate family. My ancestors. My friends. The artists and authors and musicians who have penned the parables. The leaders of thought and passers of tradition. Those who have died to protect the freedoms that I enjoy.

And even the countless forgotten who have made this world what it is. Every noble act, no matter how small.

And now is our time to continue the tradition.

Regardless of where we now stand, of the recent choices that have led us to where we now find ourselves, this is our time for heroism. This is our time to protect the Earth and it’s people.

And so I value kindness, I practice patience and exercise efforts. I strive daily to use this life for the betterment of the whole. To live up to the angelic nature which resides within.

Because we do have choice. We all have voices of vanity and cowardice, they exist alongside our selfless courage, and through the better natures of those who have inspired me I may find the strength to live by the example that they have set.

We are a long line, the lineage of humanity we represent, and we are duty bound by the better nature and potential for beauty, to pass along a heritage of heart-centered living.

We understand that our actions extend beyond us. I understand how the way I treat others directly affects how I treat myself.

This world is comprised of angels and demons. And by the light of great compassion the angels are illuminated and display commanding effect. By the grace of this benevolence I receive my power. Believing that it is for the greatest good it becomes duty bound, for the glory of the whole.

Angels and integrity – how your body gleams with light as you act with such purpose.

There are days when I see people failing to love each other, when we concern ourselves only with our self, and willingly harm others to get ahead. It is a very real scenario. But that is not the only one. So too do the angels exist.

And they are brilliant. They shine with a light beyond the sight of the eye. It is a radiant soul that shines into the darkness of depression and grief.

These angels have saved me. And as reparation I right myself. I push myself to do what is right instead of what is easy. So that there may be hope, and that the sequence continues. The chain of events unfolds towards the heaven here on planet Earth.

Unique to our species is the freedom of will. Unique from the animals, we can choose how to exist. Through reason we may balance our emotion and work towards a future that benefits all.

I open to the angels I know and the ones I don’t. I value the power of love, especially when it is hard, and the hurt asks us to. There is a beauty in one who chooses to heal and forgive and continually strive towards utopia.

May you speak and act with love. May you witness the thoughts which harm and instead invite those that heal. May you commit to the path of kindness and understanding. May you continue to grow and empower yourself by knowing the unity of all people. May you remember that your success is our success. May you work on yourself so that all beings can reap the rewards. May you be an example of virtue. May you shine as the brilliant angel you are.
