CROSS-fit #29 Angels

We all wish we could see them, touch them, be like them.
In the midst of all the heat, the adversities, we all want to see angels.
Mary saw an angel before she conceived Jesus in her womb.
So did many other heroes of Faith in the Bible.
Some people even claimed that they have seen visions of angels surrounding others.
I really do admire many of those visions.
No, I'm not saying that they aren't real but...
Most of the time, most of the time, the rule is that no, we don't really see open angels coming on us.

We all want that angelic being protecting us all the time.
Telling us it's ok, everything will be alright.
We hope for better grades, results, instant victory with the appearance of an angelic being.
May even come in the form of a person, a friend.
But really, sometimes, most of the time, that isn't the case, is it?

There're times where we feel close to dying, in excruciating pain.
Well guess what, there is an angel.
There always is. One that resembles you.
One that comes with hard work.
One that's created by you.
It's the sweat angel, the angel that you make for yourself after you've done all you can, worked all possible ways. Outdid yourself multiple times.
You don't need angels from heaven most of the time.
But you do need that sweat angel, imprinted on the floor...
