A Curse That Befalls An Angel

Once upon a time, there was once a beautiful angel that lives in the heavens. Angels are well known for their beauty as well as their persistent behavior of not taking any interest in the worldly treasures. Thus such thing as greed, hunger and lust is something an angel would not posses. This one particular angel however is uniquely different from all the others. Not only is this angel unique because the angel is far more beautiful than all the other angels combined, the angel is also unique because of the human characteristics she posses. However, it is also because of this “human characteristics” she has that made her so different from all the others to an extent that the angels no longer hang around with her, or to be more exact, this angel no longer hang around with others as she wanders around alone too much satisfying her own desires.

This angel wanders around our world, seeking for delicious foods from each and every corner she can find. Some might say that her superior beauty came with the curse of having the human characteristics she posses. An angel is of course invisible before the human eyes, therefore it is simply too easy for the angel to go flying wherever she pleases and takes whatever she desires. Is it stealing? Well of course, that’s why some call her human characteristics a curse.

Then comes a day when this angel becomes amazingly fat due to the fact that she ate too much. But still her wings carry her from one location to another searching for food that she could not resist. One day, her wings just snapped as they could no longer support the weight of her body. Without her wings, she simply became a regular human being that now has to walk with her own two feet on world we are living in. Unfortunately, it goes more beyond that. Unto this day, the angels in the heavens still described this event as the worst curse ever befall unto an angel with natural gifts that supersedes others and the reason such curse exist is because of the human characteristics instilled in the angels personality. With her wings gone, she was inflicted with a curse with several effects….

One… She is left with all the desires and characteristics of a human…

Two… Although her body can now be seen by ordinary humans, her beauty is not under the comprehension of normal human beings thus her superior beauty could not be properly understood and appreciated by ordinary humans…

Three… She is cursed with a body that will no longer go fat no matter how much she eats, this curse is to represent the unending desire she previously had when this curse befall unto her…

With these cursed attributes she now has, she is forced to live on the face of this earth. She finally came across a man that somehow had an exceptional perception that allows him to see how beautiful she truly is. She spent the rest of her life with that particular man as she daily fed herself with human foods to survive…

From the perception of angels in the heavens, this curse is indeed overwhelmingly sad, cruel, and unfortunate. Because of this incident, there has not been a single angel who dares set even one foot on the face of the earth any longer. It is indeed a tragic ending for an angel that carries too much gifts, as well as the curse that came along with it…

….

….

However, this is simply the perception of those angels in the heavens. What about the perception of the angel that encountered this curse?

Well, from her point of view, it is not a curse at all. Instead, it was a blessing. Not only is she now able to openly enjoy the worldly pleasures that other angels could only dream of, she is now blessed with the best gifts that the human world could possibly offer… That is the ability of loving the one she loves like crazy and being loved back just as much… She now has a person that she can share her feelings with, share her joy with, and share her entire life with… A person that finally understood and appreciate her for who she really is and what she actually is deep inside… The only curse she believed to encounter being a human is most probably love itself, as it is something so addictive that she can no longer live without… The event is indeed a blessing from her point of view… Plus, she can no longer go fat no matter how much she eats. What more can you ask for?
