Shoulder Angels

I am a person who doesn't like to make decisions. It doesn't matter if it's a big decision like, what should I do with the rest of my life? Or a little one like, Taco Time or Burger King? I don't want to be the person who decides! However, I have found my self in the decisioning role many times and have always wished for some little angels to sit atop my shoulders and talk me through it. The angels jobs would be easy; they would simply sit there and talk to me. They would give me my options and point out the pros and cons to each. They would make one of the options sound much more appealing than the other and then I would make the decision and it, of course, would always be right!
Well, a week ago, we were having a barbeque at my grandparents house. I was taking a picture of myself (because I'm cool like that) when I noticed some little angels sitting on my shoulders! It was so weird! I had to take several shots before I got one where the angels weren't acting up, but I finally got a little cooperation out of them. 

It's a really close shot of my face, which is
a little creepy, but don't those look like 
helpful angels!

And look at this one, he's sending a message 
right into my ear!

And this is to show how unruly the angels
can be sometimes.



The one on the right must be the angel
who tries to get me to do bad things! ;)

Anyway, I am grateful for the angels in my life. There are many of them, too many to name them all! They don't even know that they are my angels. These angels do play a role in the decisions I make, whether they know it or not! They don't even have to say anything, they just have to be the person they are and they sway the way I think and act. So, today I am sending a thank you out in to the universe for all of you angels!

My name is Mandie. I am a lover of the Fall season, cloudy weather, rural places, potato chips, getting mail, family, friends, the gospel, Winston, writing and so much more! I needed a hobby, so I started a blog. My life is normally pretty boring, blogging has given me a reason to try new things and be aware of the world around me because surely there is something to learn every day if we are paying attention!
