Angels on Your Shoulder

Angels on Your Shoulder

Memorial Day and angels here in Hawaii

posted by Susan Gregg

Here in Hawaii there is a beautiful tradition each Memorial Day Weekend called the Lantern Floating Ceremony.  The ceremony remembers those who have passed from this life, whether they gave their lives in conflict or simply passed away. It allows people to reflect on the memories of loved ones. It launches prayers for a peaceful and harmonious future into the beautiful waters of the Pacific ocean. The wish is for peace and happiness to extend from Hawaii across the globe.

It is an absolutely beautiful and deeply moving ceremony. I think of all the people who make this ceremony possible as angels in human form.

You can mentally add your prayers to this years lanterns if you’d like.

With love and aloha,
Susan

Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.

Make Angels on Your Shoulder part of your daily routine and share it with a friend!

What is an angel?
I get that question a lot. The best answer I have is they are pure, expansive unconditional love. They embrace us always. They surround us with their love and I've been told that unless we ask they won't interfere in our lives. I guess that is true except my life has been saved more than once by som

Angels are your friends
I get so many e mails asking me how to work with angels. The other day I got a phone call from a woman who had bought my book and wanted to recover some stolen money. As we talked she became more and more disappointed. She seemed to expect the gods to smite this person for what they had done and imm
