Got pain? Feeling depressed or anxious? Let’s be angels!
“Are you an angel?”, an Appalachian Trail hiker asked me. I said, “No, I am just someone who loves to help others.” He replied, “Then you are an angel!”
If helping others is the description of an angel,
I am happy to be called an angel!
I am happiest when I am helping someone else. When I help someone else, I do not think about my own issues and problems. And I do not feel anxious or depressed. When I am helping others, I do not feel the usual phantom pain in my foot. I also feel healthy and very happy.
Two role models in my life are my Grandma and my Mother. One I try to emulate, and the other taught me what not to do and how not to treat others.
My Grandma was truly an angel and I am very fortunate to have had her in my life as a role model. She helped others every chance she got. She had no health issues, never took any medications, and was always happy. My Mother is the exact opposite of my Grandma. She is selfish and hurts others every chance she can. She only talks about herself and her problems and does not care about what is going on in others’ lives. My mother hurts all the time physically and complains constantly. She takes bunches of medications! So I copy my Grandma every chance I get!
Everyone who takes medications is not selfish and unkind like my Mother is. Some people simply have health issues like I have had. Helping others helps me cope with my health issues because it reduces my pain, helps my immune system, and makes me feel happy.
Everyone who experiences physical pain is not selfish and unkind like my Mother is. I realize that some people have painful, chronic health issues. They need pain medications.
There is a natural pain killer that does not cause any side effects—
helping others!
Let’s all be angels!
