Once
upon a time there was a child ready to be born. The child asked God, "They tell
me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small
and helpless?" God replied, "Among the many angels, I chose one for you,
your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you".
The child further inquired,
"But tell me, here in heaven I don't' have to do anything but sing and smile to be
happy". God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for
you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy".
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when
people talk to me if I don't know the language?", God said, "Your angel will
tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and
care, your angel will teach you how to speak"?
"And what am I going to do
when I want to talk to you"? God said, "Your angel will always talk to you
about me and will teach you the way to come back to me, even though I will always be next
to you". At that moment there was much peace in heaven, but voices from Earth
could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell
me my angel's name".
