Christmas Angels
Every year during the holidays I combine well-being with joy by giving small souvenirs, which makes me happy. Through various contents and forms matched to each wonderful soul who receives them, I give a little bit of who I am, energy, smiles, optimism, curiosity, wonder, love, friendship, hope and good cheer.
And I get them back in the same tenth way. The state of euphoria, humility, contentment, gratitude and inner peace felt are always effervescent in a cocktail that seasons the well-being and satisfaction of being HUMAN.
I was walking around the shops to find something to symbolize what I want to convey to my loved ones for the holidays and my steps led me to the Auchan Christmas section. I was greeted by a rainbow of bright mixed colors dancing in thousands of figurines and objects cheerful and full of the essence of Christmas. Patience is what makes the difference when we buy to buy or buy thinking about how to best fit the person receiving it.
And suddenly I saw a shelf of stylized Angels in colors like black, gold, marsala and red, elegantly packaged in a clear plastic frame. Handmade from recycled cardboard. They smiled at me and I instantly understood their meaning, the one I was looking for in a meaningful gift: to inspire respect, temperance, patience, wisdom, humility, magnanimity, gratitude, contentment, peace, tranquility, clarity, smile, beautiful, friendship, vulnerability, motivation, love, hope.
I left without buying. The next day I made a list and purchased seven Angels. Super excited, I distributed them in packages to give to dear friends and acquaintances. When what you see…..I needed three more angels.
The next few days I went back and bought five more Angels. Surprise at the cash register: after scanning the loyalty card, the kind and smiling cashier told me that I have almost 70 lei bonus on the card because I bought something from the Christmas offer.
That’s how I found out that 50% of the price of each product from the thousands of Christmas figurines on sale is returned in money to the loyalty card.
Wow…..how quickly I received God’s answer and reward.
Before all 12 Angels reach each of their intended recipients.
For me, what happened to me represents yet another divine gesture through which God speaks to me, arousing emotions of goodness and happiness. They are the gifts of the soul in which I put a touch of my becoming.
It’s amazing how by giving, we gain!!!!!
Magical holidays with joy and hope!
