Is your guardian angel screwing you?

Sometimes it takes an accident to give one a new perspective on the world in which you used to live.

If civil service jobs in heaven are handled in any way like they're handled down here, then YES.

This is not to say that civil servants flat out don't care.  I think most must to some degree. (or nothing would ever get done) I'm saying their patience is limited and they're only willing to go so far.  It's unwise to expect too much.  The DMV is not the first class section on an airliner.  To wit, your guardian angel is not your flight attendant.

Anyone who expects him to be is in for a rough landing.  These false (and later crushed) expectations play out in many areas of life.  Dangerous recreational activities is one of the more obvious ones.

Let's say you're skiing on the advanced slope when you really should still be on the bunny.  And you break your fool leg.  Does that mean your guardian angel slipped up?  Probably not.  You could have been impaled on the pointy branch a few yards further downhill.  So maybe he let you off easy with just a broken leg.

Coulda been worse.  You're welcome.

Couldn't he have just given you a scare instead, like a frothy tumble but no broken bones?  Yes, but you'd forget that within the hour.  You've already forgotten you shouldn't be on the advanced slope in the first place.  And you still think you should have gotten off with a warning?  Does he really owe you that?  Remember that little sickly fear tickle in your stomach you ignored when you were at the top?  That was him!  You knew then you didn't belong on that hill.  But nooooo, you had to jump in feet first (then head first, then feet again...)

So maybe it's not that your guardian angel is screwing you.  He's just not babying you. 
You're screwing you.  The summer's here (at least in the northern hemisphere) and there's plenty of ways to get yourself hurt or worse; jet skiing, parasailing, snorkeling, water skiing...  Yes, they're all fun, but they're all "at your own risk" too -just remember the key words: YOUR RISK
(it means the same in heaven and on earth -you're on your own dude.)
