And you're right, I didn't. I still wish I could have done more to stop it, though. But I'm trying to put in the work now. I want to learn more about people; demons, humans, angels, and others. As much as I can! That way I can use that knowledge to make Heaven a better place. A place that changes to suit the individual rather than the other way around. I know it still won't be for everyone and it'll never be perfect, but I want to try anyway.
A place that suits the individual rather than the individual changing to suit the place, huh? You know, you might be on to something. One of the reasons I don't wanna be redeemed is because Heaven just does not look like my thing. At all. I don't want to spend the rest of my eternity being bored.
No offense to you guys who love it, but different strokes for different folks, you know?
But I guess that's a problem too. People being different means you can't make changes that'll please everybody. That never works. What one person wants, another might take offense to. So yeah, it's a real pickle.
Oh no I'm totally picking up what you're putting down. We all like different things and have different beliefs and experiences, but I know there are some things shared between all of us. I don't really know if finding them or focusing on them is the answer to that problem or not, but it's a start at least. It's something.
And besides, we have an eternity to figure it out. And like, eternity is a really, really, really long time. Suppose in that time you change your mind. Not saying you will, but hypothetically. Or heck, suppose someone with a similar mindset to you does. What are we supposed to do? Expect them to just bend over backwards and break off pieces of themselves just to fit into a mold that even us angels don't perfectly fit into? And to do this after already working on themselves to get redeemed?
No. We already tried that and it doesn't work. I'm not going to pretend like I know what the solution is, but I'm sure it's not "do the same thing over again and expect a different result."
You really are an angel. And I mean that in the best way possible. Here's to hoping you can figure something out eventually. Eternity's a long time, but the sooner everyone's settled into the kind of afterlife they really belong in, the better.

I think ending it here works well?
