26. Saints & angels walk among us. Not magic or even religious, just the nature of many people

You were blessed to have known such a spirit. She was blessed to have you as a friend who took the time to look after her.

And we are blessed by your reminder that such spirits are among us. May we all take enough time to recognize them.
