Angels

There is just something about angels that can come into your life when you least expect it. Open your mind, and there are thousands - some in my life, of late.

Where do I start? I was in Al Ain. There are plenty of lovely people there - just everywhere you look: you will not find trouble, especially as a single lady. Just ask anyone for directions (not that Al Ain doesn't have its spell of roundabouts), 3einawees (local Al Ain people) will direct you, roundabout for roundabout (haha! there are many), where you'd like to go. And they do that with a big, huge, smile, and wish you on with all good wishes. God bless them.

Angels in Dubai: I recently called a customer care line, and was attended to quickly: the voice on the other end greeted me with what seemed like an permanent smile, and an extemely pleasant demeanour. I sincerely applaud the individual who was as helpful as he could be, going the extra mile.

Returning to the same area to offer my "Salaam" to the person that inspired this post, I did not find them. I ran the errands I needed to since I was there.

I needed to run another errand, which I couldn't manage independently. I asked a gentleman if he worked there. He said, "Yes, how can I help you?"

It would have been beyond his call of duty, but he willingly helped.

God bless him, and all good, kind-hearted others who have played a positive role in my life.

Life to me is a rolling ball absorbing good vibes and good energy, going on and on.
