Because it's dead boring up there. The only entertainment is people sitting around on clouds playing their harps. And all my deceased friends are -- well, let's just say they're somewhere else, having a great time. Plus there's nothing to wear.
“Well, where should I start? Okay, the wings, they’re so damn heavy … oh, and I asked for some in silver. Heavens, no, they said. And have you tasted ambrosia? Every morning, goodie-two-shoes announce who they’ve saved. Bo-ring. Boy angels and girl angels on separate clouds. You should see how ripped the harp tuner is and I can’t even pop by to get my strings plucked. Heaven help us.”
I have gone for two endings if that's okay.
Firstly because ' the ability of humankind to mess things up transcends religion, spirituality or hope. Even in heaven there is no eternal peace.
Or
Because those pesky gates kept squeaking every time they opened. It was driving me crazy 🤪
Beautiful, Bertsyview! Thanks for taking part.
My feathers were too heavy. I cold not fly. Asked what I really wanted. I said a tail.
Yessir. But now it needs a bit more...
Mermaid by the sea.
Aha!

Well.... no wonder.
😄
I’m allergic to feathers.
Ha ha ha ha ha! Thanks, Scott.
Thanks. My more serious thought was “l’m not good at receiving gifts.”
🤣
"Well, because I failed to protect the woman in my charge and wasn't deserving in my role as a Guardian angel."
This one I cannot top. Great job imo
Thanks Kim. Appreciate it.
Returning to earth as penance... poor soul
....because I never believed in God to begin with, and I'm extremely uncomfortable in his presence....
A scary thought for a whole lot of people, I imagine.
because Lucifer said there was "more".
Yeow! Good answer
Because the patriarchy lives on……
Interesting, isn't it how some speak of god as a noun ( the father, the mother, the force etc), while others speak of god as a verb (love )
Well, because... "I want Heaven to be here on Earth."
A dreamer...?
Because I didn't want to fly. I wanted to dance.
If they don't allow a polka or a tango in heaven, then I can see why she would reconsider.
Oh, and banjos. There's gotta be banjos, or I am not going.
... there were too many self-righteous people there pretending to be angels. It was getting harder to tell which from what!
Oh no, Sue. Fake angels? What in heaven's name are we to do now?
Just be careful what you ask for and from whom. LOL
Because, well ... {her eyes get moist} as the last of my kind I could no longer bear the weight.
Wow... that is deep.
OR...
"because, well ... {she averts her eyes} there were these diamond earrings..."
ha ha ha
(ever the romantic)
Because I didn't want to be there without ... you.
“Well, where should I start? Okay, the wings, they’re so damn heavy … oh, and I asked for some in silver. Heavens, no, they said. And have you tasted ambrosia?

Ha ha ha! Well thought out. That "separate clouds" thing, though. Makes one take pause.
I know, right. Very UNheavenly, if you ask me! I’d be the fallen angel!
"because all the men up there are too virtuous to fool around and sin a little."
Whoa! Hold it right there! I think she was a little unclear on the concept. Ha ha ha
