Looking at things and trying to figure out the value of things. I am totally lost. The biggest loss to value I see is the words. The words people use to say they have a particular thing in mind and use one benefit to hide the negative impact on the daily life of the majority. Day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year. The same systems are said to be in our interests, turn out to be nothing more than false flags that have a bigger negative effect on the populations of nations.

Greed is said to be the main reason for this. Peoples opinion gets bought, that benefit to the individual (in a position of authority) Has a bigger negative effect on the rest of the community.

The problem with this is there is no alternative available. The same processes will repeat themselves with different initiatives.

As an example.
A landscaping project is begun. it is set to cost 1 million. It will run in excess of that to a total of 1.6 million. This is paid for through the taxes of the community.
That the landscaping project will be done by the brother in law of a council member or even in some cases a council members own business. Back handers, brown envelops, some might call it just business call it what you will. It is abuse of authority. While efforts are put in place to curb such corruption. Over time the same powers grow again and continue to remove opportunity and human established rights.

The loss of life and health due to the lack of power within the government to combat a financial growth of a private entity. A growing debt and a growing need for a larger one. Due to better health care. Longer years of living. Greater number in the population. These all add to the future costs of keeping a country efficient. Certain balances need to be found.

I used to see Angels. I used to see them everywhere. I used to see faeries too and pixies. I never actually seen the faeries or pixies I only ever seen them in stories and then imagination.

While touching on this, I would like to bring up up fictional trivia. When kids are young enough to see faeries and pixies themselves. I tell them that magic pixie dust is made from butterfly poop. One day I hope to read one of your authors used that in a story.

I used to see angels though for real. Or what I believed to be angels. Never happened to capture one though I was captivated by a few.

One thing I know is you can't make an angel any better than they are. Trying to do so is just trying to make an angel fit into your ideals. Ahem, angels already fit into a different entities ideal. Any change will change what you see and what you did see will no longer be what you see.

I used to see angels though but I do not see many any more. Now I just imagine as if they could be there like I had seen them before. I still do see one and I wonder am I only seeing with a wish, a hope that maybe. It doesn't really matter to tell the truth. It is what I see. You dot have to see how those wings spread for me to feel the motion in the air as the wing passes by.
The warmth felt when they gaze passes my way or the relaxation as a weighted burden is lifted. You don't have to see or feel these things. That I do is what makes me smile and feel good.
That momentary feeling of belonging when graced with the company of angels. Stretches out for days from the intensity of the moment.

I am sure there are more then just the few angels I see out there. There must be many more. More than I could count. Counting them though would be a pleasure. Sure, if i only found one I count count you all day.

Random thought. I wonder how much beer it would take to get a wall plastered.

This post is very superficial. It does not matter how deep you read into any that has been written here. It is superficial hyped up to the limits. It barely scratches the surface of anything. If it makes a scratch then what you are scratching is made out of jelly/jello.

Pixie dust and butterfly poop, it rhymes so it is legit. I do not think there are any angels once you look past the surface, our realm belongs to humans and by that angels would be human and by that, they would be inherently selfish more so with the power of an angel. !tip 1
