Do you believe in angels?

I got this idea from Anna's post about the tire tonight and her 'guardian angels'...

Do you feel that you have a guardian angel and why?

When I was about 6 years old, we went to the lighting of the rockefeller center tree. It was a mess! We got caught up in a stampede basically and almost got killed. My grandmother who was about 74 at the time was almost trampled and my mom had my sister who was only 2 years old in her arms and there was no one to pick me up. Of course it was freezing and I had so many layers of clothes on which made it even harder. People were screaming, bleeding, everything, barricades fell on top of people and the cops stood and watched.

Out of no where, a man picked me up and put me on his shoulders. He was about 24 my mom says and he told my mom that he would keep me safe. My mom was scared because obviously she didnt know this man but she had no other choice. He held me for what it felt like for hours and my mom, sister and grandmother got out before we did.

Finally, we made it to Radio City and there was my family safe and sound. MY mom says she offered him money, which she still didnt feel was enough for saving her daughters life, and he wouldnt take it. He gave her his address so they could keep in touch and as we walked away, his address blew out of my moms hands and into the wind. How ironic?

I always believed he was my guardian angel here on Earth. HE saved my life and always made me believe in angels.

NOw that my moms fiance is gone, I also get feelings sometimes that he is our own guardian angel in heaven...

Anyone else have any stories like this? Believe in guardian angels??
