In life, there are people we love, people we like, people we don’t like and, sometimes, people we despise. Rumor is, we are supposed to love everyone. Even the people who are doing evil in the world? Yes.  

How? Why?

My spiritual friends and I bandied this topic about a few weeks ago. We wondered how we could love “bad” people. We wondered why we should love the people who infuriate us.

We know that we come into this life with a list of things we want to experience. On The Other Side, it seems like a good idea to experience love, hate, adventure, boredom, challenges, etc. Could we do all of this if life was only the good stuff? People treating each other kindly and with respect? Probably not. We need antagonists and conflict to find out if we can stand up for ourselves. We need challenges to see if can surmount them.  
The trick to loving everyone is to look at things from a higher perspective. We can imagine that we are all actors in a stage play on Earth. Everyone chooses a different part in the play so that there is a full drama. Without villains and opponents, it would be a pretty lackluster story.

We have to realize that individual souls are not the same as the characters they choose to play on Earth. They are like actors who create a character for certain experiences. The individual we are loving is the soul/actor, not the character they are playing on stage.

Everybody picks a different role, depending upon the drama they want to experience. It doesn't make them a bad person. The actor is not the role they are playing.

In any story, you love the hero and you hate the villain, and you realize that these are roles played by actors.

Think of the people you don’t like. Think of your competitors. Think of the nasty things they have said. Does your blood boil?

On Earth, when we are in the thick of the drama, it can be difficult to remember that we are souls who are visiting Earth for a lifetime of experience. If we can pull ourselves back and take a higher perspective, we can allow the idea of “loving everyone no matter what they are doing” to enter our consciousness.

Also keep in mind that just because we know we are supposed to love someone, doesn’t mean we have to like them. Loving people and liking people are two separate issues. You can love the core of someone without liking what they do.

We are all connected through energy and, somehow, our adversaries are a part of us. When we hate them, we hurt ourselves. Instead, we can think of them as teachers who help us learn lessons.

Personally, I try not to hate anyone. Instead, I wish them enlightenment. I wish they would have an experience that helps them understand that it’s okay to be kind to people. I don't wish anyone harm, but that doesn’t mean I want to love them.

One of our group members commented that it was not a matter not liking, or disliking, someone. It was realizing that you can love the core of who they are, regardless of what they are doing. You don't have to like them, or participate in their drama, but having ill feelings towards their core being ties you to them through emotion.

I understand this philosophically. I can see the higher perspective. I’ve got it. I also know that when somebody is a pain in the butt or when I am faced with evil, it can be tough to keep this in mind. So, there’s the challenge: remembering to love the soul without being distracted by the role they are playing in your life.

Onward and upward.

P.S. A big thank you to my group of friends who explored this topic. Wonderful insights.

Angels are a part of our lives, whether we realize it or not. Some people can see angels and speak with them. Other people are only aware of angels when they need them.

Angels are mainly messengers from the Divine who whisper in our ears. However, they can take on other roles when necessary.

Angels are a different vibration than human beings. They are souls which have never incarnated on Earth. They vibrate at higher frequency than humans. We can think of them as having “graduated” from one level to another. Still a soul. No body. Very powerful.

What do they look like? In their natural state, angels look like balls of light. If we need something more, if we need to realize we are talking with angels, they can transform to look like something from a story book: tall, in white robes, with golden wings or, like Cupid, short, round and babyish.  

When we need them in physical form, they can take on the appearance of a human being. In these situations, we often think we are talking to a person who has come to assist us. We are actually talking to an angel. Stories abound of people who were in car accidents and someone came to rescue them, or to hold their hand until the EMTs arrived. Then, those people disappeared and no one else remembered seeing them. These are angels in human form which assist us in emergencies.

Sometimes, angels will take on a body as an instrument to deliver a message. They will give the information, then disappear into the crowd.

Angelic energy can also manifest in a different way. Sometimes, when we help someone, we do more good than we know. We are empowered by an angelic energy which mixes with our human energy and allows us to give a boost to the person or animal we are working with. Have you ever had that feeling that you were helping to heal someone using more than your own energy? Or that you were talking to someone and said just the right thing? Angel energy could be coming into your body. If you suspect that you helped someone in a way that seemed uncanny, supernatural, amazing, or remarkable, an angel may have used your body (with your permission) to help another person. In this case you are, at least for a moment, an angel.

When you feel that Spirit is speaking through you, that you are a vessel of Spirit, you may be in tune with angelic energy. Maybe it’s an angel, maybe it’s a Guide, maybe it’s a direct line to Spirit.  

In November 2018, Mark Janssen wrote about angels. He said:

“Real angels have no form. They may choose to appear in human form and even with wings. In reality, they are balls of energy. Angels can be gold, silver, white, blue and a whole host of other colors. They can be smaller than a grain of sand or as large as a basketball. They move faster than the eye can see. They will appear in one place, disappear, and reappear far away.

“Angels are with us when we ask for them, when we say their names and tell them we need them. Angels are with us when we forget they exist, when we forget we have a Creator. They are with us in times of joy and dancing, as well as times of evil and despair.”

It’s fascinating to think of all the ways that angels may be a part of our lives without us really thinking about them.

How about you? Have you had an angelic encounter?
