Right now I am afraid to go to sleep. Afraid of what the night may bring.
I heard a noise at 4am and thought it was my baby messing around in her cot, but instead it was an intruder, with his body pressed against the glass passage window, looking in. They had been trying to break in. In this country, you know what that means and it is not good. This is my second experience of this kind (third, if I count my scare while teaching a yoga retreat in McGregor). What I know is that having young children changes everything. What I know is that I don’t want to have to live like this and I don’t want my children to either. I don’t want my girls to become another statistic. I don’t want them to be traumatized over some horrendous event they should never have to encounter. I love this country and always will, but I do not believe my future is here. I simply cannot risk it. I can no longer live in denial and make excuses. I can no longer ignore the signs. This both angers and saddens me, but I did not actually wish to write about my fear or my pain, I wanted to write about angels.
I believe in angels. Or perhaps it is more accurate to say I know they exist – only because I have experienced their existence firsthand in many ways. If you are skeptical about such things, I do not blame you as many years ago, so was I. Some things you just have to experience. I am not a fan of dogma in any form and do not bother to follow courses or books on angel hierarchies and such like, I just choose to be open to them in my life. I believe I was protected by angels, specifically Archangel Michael as I had called on him yesterday to protect my family. I had used protective Reiki symbols and surrounded my whole family as well. I cannot say why I chose to do this yesterday. Occasionally, my intuition speaks and I have just learnt to listen.
In the nature of this blog, I want to list a few things I am grateful for:
I am grateful Nina was in a different room for that night otherwise I would never have seen the man.
I am grateful my family and especially my girls are safe.
I am grateful I am a light sleeper.
I am grateful we are living her in my parent’s house and that nothing happened to them.
I am grateful for the messages of the universe and the lessons life is offering me.
I want whoever is reading this, to suspend doubt, skepticism and scientific brainwashing for one moment and remember this: When you feel the need for help or protection, irrespective of whether you are religious or not, or believe in a God or not, call on Archangel Michael to surround you in purple light. Believe in angels, and feel their presence everywhere.
And to the intruders.
May your anger fade and may angels bring light and love into your lives as well.

my heart is broken that this has happened. I believe in angels and call on them all the time too. May they grant you all peace and rest and may they show themselves to those who wish to do harm. I love you my friend xxx
Oh. My. Word!! I can’t believe that this has happened to you. Thank goodness you woke up. Well done for focusing on the positive around something so disturbing. I believe our angels are with us all the time. I hope that you are able to get some much needed rest soon!! XXX
How sad I am for you and your family, you just don’t deserve to have this happen again, all my love and prayers to all of you. I talk to angels all the time, sometimes for help, sometimes to give thanks. I just know they’re always there for us.
Be brave

Sorry to hear about your horrific experience… Hugs, xx
You know how precious all the residents of No 70 are to me and I thank God and his angels for keeping you all safe. Of course, there are angels. messengers of the only true God and as I sat on the verandah at No 70 I prayed that he, St Michael and All Angels would surround the house and all of you and continue to protect you all. So sleep peacefully love he hears all prayers, believe as I do you will be safe. After all he has protected you in the past and there is no reason to doubt he is always be with you and yours to care and protect.
