The Story Behind This Book
I must confess that this book did not formulate as a creative thought or an idea. Nor, for that matter, did I have to linger over storylines, characters or even choices of phrases or words. The manner in which Angels of Faith was presented to me was every bit as captivating and heartwarming as the story held within its pages. In fact, one could say that it is the ‘story within the story.’ While living along the glorious Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia, I had risen quite early to continue working on my third book, Love of Self—The Way of the Heart. After writing for a while, I became aware of chirping from a Willy Wagtail, a small black and white bird. Not giving it too much attention, I refocused on my writing. After a few minutes of silence, the chirping from this little bird became louder and more frantic. The tone of the chirping seemed to have great urgency, and I got up and followed the sound. The excited chirping was coming from our unused outside clothesline. As I peered out of the window, I saw that the little Willy Wagtail had built a nest in the framework of the clothesline and was sitting on some eggs. Even though I came very near to the window, this little bird looked me straight in the eye and was frantically trying to tell me something. I was mesmerized as I stood there and listened. As the bird’s chirping subsided, I walked back to my computer to continue writing. Yet when I repositioned my fingers on the keyboard, my fingers magically began to type out a new, very different story. I watched in amazement as the words effortlessly filled page after page and reflected the story that the little bird had urged me to write. After channeling this touching story, I sat and read it as tears rolled down my cheeks. The little bird had wanted me to write the story of Angels of Faith to remind others of where they come from and the journey we all get to take. Claire Candy Hough
