I have traveled more than any one else, and I have noticed that even the angels speak English with an accent
angel writing awful
I don't speak German well but several experts have assured me that I write it like an angel. Maybe so, maybe so- I don't know. I've not yet made any acquaintances among the angels. That comes later, whenever it please the Deity. I'm not in any hurry.
