The Guardian Angel

Have you ever felt the existence of a guardian angel?
About a week ago, I felt that existence.

I was so concerned about my study after the midterm tests, and was crying.
Then, for one moment, I felt a warm air with words like "Don't cry..."
I was overwhelmed by a warm feeling, and then cried again; this time from happiness.

The angel was always looking after me, so I think I'm OK now.

I'm glad for you, Saku. You are a sensitive soul. I've had moments like this in my life as well, and have been very grateful for them.
And how nicely you handle really complex sentences!
I am so touched by this posting I almost don't want to suggest changes, but you tell me it helps, so I will. Just a couple very small things: "I felt a warm air with the words like.."--here you don't need the "the"; it would be enough to write "I felt a warm air with words like..."
And "and then cried again for this time by happiness" (this sounds delightful, by the way, to my ear, but definitely marks you as a ESL person). More correct would be : "and then cried again; this time from happiness." Or, you could make it two sentences, like this: "I was overwhelmed by a warm feeling. I cried again, this time from happiness."
I believe that even during very stressful times--or perhaps especially during stressful times--something in this universe holds us tenderly. (By the way, my use of dashes is frowned upon by proper writers of English! Also, probably my parenthetical statements.) (and that last little bit is a sentence fragment. This too. I am a bad, bad breaker of the rules of grammar. But I can help you a little with yours.)

Thank you for commentating.
I corrected as you suggested. How to use "the" is always difficult.
