Musings: Angelic Energy

Every now and then, someone crosses my path at just the right moment — a person I didn’t expect, who turns out to be exactly what I needed. Help appears in ways I could never have planned.

That happened today. I’m still not sure how to describe it without sounding a little odd, but it left a deep impression on me.

After a lovely visit to an Experimental Farm with my son, we started our way back to the parking lot. I was using a cane, limping along, as my knees were hurting. Off in the distance, I noticed a young woman driving a golf cart. I didn’t think much of it and never considered asking for a ride. But she must have noticed us, because she turned and came directly toward us.

She stopped and asked how we were doing, if we were enjoying our visit. Then she said, “Are you leaving now?” I told her we were, and that we’d had a lovely time. Without hesitation she offered to drive us back to the car.

I accepted, telling her it was a lucky break because I was in a lot of pain. Then I looked into her eyes — bright, very blue eyes. Something about her voice, her words, her whole presence felt almost angelic. In the five minutes I sat beside her, I sensed a warmth and kindness so intense it felt almost… divine.

It left me feeling strangely moved.

Later, back at the hotel, I lay down to rest my knees and ended up napping. When I woke, the encounter was still on my mind. I told my son I’d felt something powerful from that young woman — a sort of angelic energy.

How interesting…
