Angel

I met a girl last night. Her name is Angel. She looks to be in her mid twenties, but she doesn't know exactly how old she is as she came to America as a refuge from China when she was a little girl. She seems to have a crazy story hidden underneath but you'd never be able to tell behind her beautiful smiling face. She has a laugh that makes you laugh from the inside out and is a perfect fit for her name. Just talking to her made me so happy. It wasn't a romantic meeting or anything, in fact, I'll probably never see her again, but those ten minutes were the best part of my entire week. It was one of those brief encounters that sticks in your head and heart and makes life truly worth living.

cool- Did you know that Shirene does not know her exact age- she was adopted from an orphanage in Iran, the orphanage found her on the side of the road- with not documents. She has a very cool story, you will have to ask her about it sometime.
