Angel Inspiration by Diana Cooper

I couldn't say if there are angels watching over us or not but this amazing book by Diana Cooper will certainly change the way you look at life. You will start viewing things from a completely different point of view. As one of the biggest cynics around this book did make even me start to question a lot of things, it makes you feel there are angels all around you and they are just waiting for you to ask them to do something for you and for the others. After reading this book, you just can't help asking an angel to help you to find the car keys, or to help you to be on time to your appointment, or to go to comfort people..and it just works like magic! I know that sounds crazy but I defy anyone to read this book and not feel changed in some way.
