"The lil' girl in the park"
There was this lil' girl one day sitting in the park. Everyone
passed and never stopped to see why she looked so sad. Dressed in a worn
pink dress, bare foot and dirty, the girl just sat and watched the people
go by. She never tried to speak, she never said a word. Many people
passed, but never did one person stop. Just so happens the next day I
decided to go back to the park, in curiousity, to see if the lil' girl
would still be there. Right in the very spot as she was yesterday she sat
perched on high, with the saddest look in her eyes.
Today I was to make my own move and walk over to the lil' girl.
For as we all know a park full of strange people is not a place for young
children to play alone. As I got closer I could see the back of the lil'
girls dress was obscenly shaped. I figured that was a reason the people
just passed by and made no effort to help. Deformities was a low blow to
our society and, "so help you" if you make a step toward assisting
someone who is different. As I got closer the lil' girl slightly lowered
her eyes to avoid my intent stare. As I approched her, I could see the
obscene shape of her back more clearly. Grotesquely shaped in a humped
over form.
I smiled to let her know it was ok, I was there to help, to talk.
I sat down beside her and opened with
a simple "Hello". The lil' girl acted shocked and stammered a "Hi" after
a long stare into my eyes. I smiled and she shyly smiled back. We talked
till darkness fell and the park was completely empty. Everyone was gone
and we at once were alone. I asked the girl why she was so sad. The lil'
girl looked at me and with a sad face said "Because I'm different". I
immediatly said "that you are!" and smiled. The lil' girl acted even
sadder, she said, "I know".
"Lil' girl", I said, "You remind me of an angel, sweet and
innocent". She looked at me and smiled, slowly she stood to her feet, and
said. Really?". "Yes ma'am, your like a lil' guardian angel sent to watch
over all those people walking by". She shook her head yes and smiled,
with that she spread her wings and said, "I am, I'm your guardian angel",
with a twinkle in her eye. I was speechless.. sure I was seeing things.
She said, "For once you thought of someone other than yourself, my job
here is done". Immediatly I stood to my feet and said, "Wait, so why did
no one stop to help an angel?". She looked at me and smiled, "Your the
only one that could see me, you believe, its in your heart".
And She was gone. And with that my life was changed
dramatically. So, When you think you're all you have, remember, your
angel is always watching over you.
Mine was... :o)
