Early morning Angel



I had to do my 4th speech in Toastmasters. The theme is “How to say it”. Basically we have to create vivid images in audience’s mind using descriptive words and all. There were suggestions to take story kind of thing where we can make audience feel what we feel and make them see what we see. I initially thought to speak about one of the real life experiences but was unable to write enough description to make the audience engaged. So finally decided to go for an imaginative story. Here is my so called “Creative story”. :)

It looked like midnight. Suddenly woke up with the feeling that someone called me. Checked the wall clock and it showed 4 am. Oh… It’s not mid night but early morning. But “Who called me at this early morning time? “I went up to mother’s bed and saw her in deep sleep. Again I heard the same voice and now I tried to track the direction of it and found it came from outside. I live on 3rd floor. Opened the door, went to the balcony and looked down at the road. There was a white figure standing on the road staring at me and making hand sign asking me to come down. Oh. No…. I have heard of lot of ghost stories and was scared to death.  I did not know what to do.

The next moment I’m not sure what happened. I just jumped over the balcony as If some remote force pushed me down. When I was falling down I realized that I’m not really falling but felt like I’m flying. Landed on the road smoothly. The figure came closer to me. Now amazingly I see the face clearly even in the misty and dark morning. A woman in white dress; Round face, sharp nose, pointed chin, small curvy lips, magnetic eyes- 1000 watts powers eyes;such a pleasant smile on the face. Oh It is not a ghost No doubt that she must be an angel.  I have never seen such a perfect poetic face. 



She started speaking; “Baby you might have forgot how you got to this world. But we remember you, we care for you and we would like to remind your duty here.”

I was at loss of words seeing a divine beauty for the first time in my life and hearing such a sweet voice. Somehow managed to find some courage to open my mouth. “What you mean by my duty here?”

She replied: “We sent you as a representative of us to this world. To help the helpless; to heal those who suffer; to love the unloved; to promote peace and harmony in this world; to shed some light on the darkest paths etc etc…”

“I really cannot that remember that I came from angel world. But I always try my best to help people as much as possible at least not to hurt them.”

“I know; anyway it is my duty to ensure those who were sent here not adapted to and spoiled by the sinful human nature here”

I became silent wondering if I too have become another ordinary human being with selfish and sinful nature.

“Child! Do not worry about the criticism made on you for being different from other humans. Because most of those critics are back powered by our enemies- evils. You got to win them, got to be yourself and got to serve to this world.”

“I will” I promised. For some reason I was overwhelmed by emotions. Closed my eyes for a while. And suddenly it started raining. I thought that
“Is it raining to bless me on my new journey or the newly discovered old journey?”

Or “is the sky shedding tears of joy seeing the precious angel on this earth?! “ I was thinking.

Opened my eyes to see the reaction on her face as well and do you know what I saw??There my mother walking away with a water glass scolding me. When did my mother come in to the scene?? ! Where is my angel?!

Now I realized that I’m lying on my bed. What??? I’m on my bed??!!

Yeah, I was lying in my bed and there is my mobile next to pillow showed 6.30 am where I remember I set the alarm to 5.30 a.m. I realized that my mother’s water glass only poured rain on me once she got tired of waking me up by calling me for an hour.

Yes. It was a dream. Awesome dream. Thank you. ! :)
