Just so happens the next day I decided to go back to the park, in curiosity if the lil' girl would still be there.  Right in the very spot as she was yesterday she sat perched on 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 obscenely shaped. I figured that was a reason the people just passed by and made no effort to help. Deformities were 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 approached 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 all at once we 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 immediately 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 got to her feet, and said. "Really?". "Yes ma'am, you're 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".

Immediately I got to my feet and said, "wait, so why did no one stop to help an angel?".

She looked at me and smiled,  "You're 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...

(Pass this to everyone that means anything at all to you....to let them know you're glad they care about you.. Like the story says we all need someone.)

Every one of your friends is an angel in their own way.
