guardian angel

February 11, 2020

I didn't come from the best of childhoods. It could've been better but I'm not complaining. I had an uncle who raised me for the first part of my life and a cousin who was the best and closest friend I'll ever have. Long story short, but the two people I hold most dear passed within 3 years of each other. When I saw the "Guardian Angel" I instantly thought of them. After all, I had only just come to terms with their passing and had come to the terms that they would always be with me - as angels who are watching over me. Guardian Angel's. It just made more sense when I read that 10% of the proceeds of Guardian Angel go to the National Firefighters Foundation. The uncle that had partially raised me had retired from the Chicago Fire Department before we had moved to London and his passing happened. I wear the "Guardian Angel" wristband all the time now as a symbol and reminder that they are always with me.
