The Ideas in the Leaves

Think of all the leaves on all the trees on earth, and what if each leaf is a symbol for an idea. If the ideas are divine, they are endless, always unfolding to the receptive thought. The founding fathers of America entertained divine ideas when they created an unprecedented system of humane government, and a platform of human rights, protected by a constitution. All wrapped up in the American system, the tools established and brought forward, such as the Constitution, and the Declaration of Independence, the Federalist papers, state constitutions, paved the way for the highest standard of living ever experienced on earth, the strongest economy on earth, many inventions to raise the standard of living for all populations on earth, a compassionate people, and many technological advances.
Each leaf, a mirror of perfection, proof of God’s good presence, an expression of continuation. The American system is like that, in its founding platform. It is either kept or lost. The platform remaind, but people decide whether they want it or reject it. The dark ages came and took away the earlier attempts at democracy and republicanism. Benjamin Franklin commented that the founders created a republic if the citizens can keep it.
