A vision appeared in my room this night
It spoke softly and kindly to me
Scenes from my past, present, and future
This Vision wanted me to see.

Events from my past were brought into view
Pointing out things I've said and done
Asking me why I behaved that way
This Vision's questions had just begun.

More and more scenes were played out
As I was taken through my childhood years
There were many times I told fibs and lies
Which caused me to cower with fear.

I cried and cried and begged for forgiveness
I was ashamed of all the things I had done
This Vision said, "Be still my child....
I've only just begun."

The following scenes were of my teenage years
I was shocked and couldn't believe my eyes
Did I really say and do those things?
All these years had I been telling myself lies?

This Vision finally identified itself
As my tears flowed just like rain
"I'm your Guardian Angel child
I'm not here to cause you pain.

I have to show you events of your life
So that you become aware
Of the path you've traveled on
I'm doing this because I care.

Pay attention 'cause this is your present
You've done well and I'm pleased with you
Reaching out and touching people's hearts
You've helped them and pulled them through."

I sat there with my eyes full of tears
And watched each scene play out
Reliving events that happened so long ago
While I sat there and shook my head in doubt.

My Angel then showed me my future
It was filled with lots of love
As long as I stay on this path
My rewards will be in Heaven above.

At that moment my Angel was gone
I was tired and very weak
I wondered if I had been dreaming
But tears were still on my cheeks.

I want you to know that I won't deviate
From this path set out for me
I plan to continue to do what is right
Because Heaven is where I want to be.
