Sometimes protection comes from where we least expect it: a stranger’s hand, a loved one’s sacrifice, or an unseen force guiding us away from danger. These 12 stories will remind you that guardian angels walk among us, often in ways we don’t notice up until some crucial moment.
- My mom convinced me and my siblings that adults don’t have to eat as much as children do. She also convinced us that her favorite food was toast. So many, many nights of her eating only toast because she wanted to save all the other food for us.
- My mom is someone who lost her husband at a very young age, didn’t think of remarrying or having another partner in life. She dedicated her entire life for me and siblings, gave us the best education she could afford, in fact, her expenses priority was food for us, our education, our wellness… anything she wanted was at the bottom of the list, some might have not even the light of the day.
Now, we are forever indebted to her, while we support her in retirement, she still does not own half the furniture one usually has in their home. Very mindful of the spending even though she does not have to.
- Every birthday, my grandma would hand me $5. Just a crumpled bill, folded tight in her hand. I always smiled and said thank you, but deep down I thought she was being kind of stingy. I mean, five bucks?
After she passed, I was helping clean out her things. In the back of her closet, I found a little tin box. Inside were envelopes, stacked by year, stuffed with bills and coins. On the lid, in her shaky handwriting: “For Julia, wedding fund.”
She’d been quietly saving for me my whole life, one tiny piece at a time. — Julia H.,
- It was a year or two ago. I was walking down the street, listening to music on my headphones, minding my own business. It was a sidewalk in downtown, so I wouldn’t really be too cautious about traffic.
Suddenly, I felt a subtle touch on my right shoulder. I turned my head to see what it was that touched me, and I stopped for a second.
This exact instant, a huge car at high speed drives from the driveway in the middle of the block. A few inches away from me. I know I could’ve been injured by that. Thank you, someone who saved me that day.
