Angels Among Us

There are definitely angels among us! I don't know why I get so lucky but I know that I do and I will never take it for granted.

Today, the underside of my front bumper finally collapsed (it's been headed that way for awhile) and the piece was dragging the ground loudly as I pulled away from the office where I was working in Sunnyvale. No way I could drive back to SF like that. I pulled over into the nearest parking lot, got out, and crouched down on the ground to see what I could do to rig it up and get home. It didn't look good.

Out of nowhere, a friendly voice said, "you need a hand?" I had to admit that I did. Long story short, I was sent a guardian angel in the form of a nice man named Will from San Bernadino (originally from Mexico.) He got under my car and would not quit until it was drivable. And it is!

He was so kind and understanding and funny - even when it started to rain, he kept at it. (I found an umbrella and held it over both of us.) He wouldn't let me give him anything for his time or efforts but I hope and pray that if he or his family ever need anything, that an angel will be there for them at the right time.
