Mon Cherub

I always think that there is someone around me who is always with me and who guides me, inspires me to give just that one extra bit more(though it fails lot of times..;)), laughs at my quirks, smirks at my fooling around with things I don't know, gives a "God can only save her" kinda look at my foolishness, just holds me when I am low and depressed and is generally just there. No, I'm not freaked out if thats what you are thinking.Whenever I discuss it with my friends or peers, I get mixed reactions from them. Some just look at me with an eyebrow raised as if saying" you kidding me?", some nod vigorously saying that they too sometimes feel like that and some of them just give that mysterious smile as if saying that I also got to know their secret.

 So what is this secret?. One of my friend had long back told me that all of us have our guardian angels who look after us and are with us always. In fact, there are umpteen number of books written on this very subject like 'Angel' by Dr Sneh Desai( this is the one which my friend had read).Well, I  actually don't know much about Angels but I would like to believe that they are there somewhere watching over us. If I talk to the elders in my family then, they would say we always have our ancestors looking out for us. If we listen to the spiritual gurus then they have their own take on it. I don't know which one of it is actually true but one thing which I know and is common among all of these is belief.In each explanation there is a strong belief behind it, a very unyielding faith in the unknown. And I too believe. In fact more so in what I don't see rather than  in what is right in front of my eyes. Yes, I can feel my friend around me nodding appreciatively and giving an indulgent smile. :)

P.S: In case you are wondering about the title, it means My Angel in French...au revoir.
