Chapter 55: Angels and my demons.

i wonder if angels are ever disappointed. there are so many things in this world that could, do and will go wrong that i wonder if an angel ever takes a step back, lets out a long sigh and says, "damnit, human, appreciate what you have."

we all know that angels can get jealous since that was the reason for lucifer's fall from grace. in his jealousy of the love God afforded mankind, he turned on all that created him, resulting in his banishment from heaven into eternal damnation. it seems that angels are not without their own complaints and negative thoughts. they just can't act on them.

but don't they ever get frustrated? here they are, assigned to guard and protect humanity forever, yet all humans seem to repeat the mistakes of those who came before them. that has to be just so infuriatingly annoying. if you've ever tutored a child or taught anyone anything and you came across a situation where that person just can't see the big picture and makes the same mistake again and again despite you being able to see exactly what needs to be done to get it right, you know what i mean. why can't they see it, why can't they see what they have?

then again, i suppose that's why they're angels. that never ending patience and love even for the most disobedient of people. most of all, that hope that things will get better. they never lose hope in humanity, and continue to believe in the good in us. all we can do is hope to be worthy of such high tolerance.
