I have always loved this quote…and I have
always loved angels. For some time, my heart has wanted to find a way to share
my love of angels, especially with children. It was with this in mind that angelsbyheather.com was born.
Life can seem so complicated at times—so
fast-paced and offering so many choices. I think the soul longs for peace and
childlike simplicity. As I began painting angels, it became a healing
meditation, carrying me back in time to the magical hours I had spent as a child drawing angels and ballerinas.
When I was about six, my grandmother gave
me a small picture of a child with an angel and told me of the "little way of spiritual childhood," taught by Therese
of Lisieux. I remember how it soothed me...and how, even years later, gazing at that image would bring
a sense of sweetness and peace. It is my hope that the little angels
and meditations on this site will bring a similar moment of blessing to you.
I invite you to visit the "Garden of Angels" (and "A Note to Children")
for a childlike meditation on angels and virtues. And the "Garden of Inspiration" for a few favorite reflections
from verse and literature.
I would love to hear from you...
Email me at info@angelsbyheather.com to share your thoughts--or to order an angel print, notecards, or angel egreeting. Angels have a special way of brightening someone's day!
Blessings,
Heather
