Release the Angel Inside

I remember the story of someone asking Michelangelo what he was doing when he was creating a sculpture…he said that “he was releasing the angel inside”
That story has always stuck in my mind and now it acts as a way of gaining courage to face the loneliness
and the depression. You keep getting up, you keep going through the motions in order to release that happy person inside when she is ready to face the world again..you see we are doing what Michelangelo was doing…we are releasing each ache, each tear at a time, the cold stone that surrounds us from the grief…to release that smiling angel once again.
