If I'm not mistaken, there had been hopes and plans in the past that the police project would be
exposed at Halloween time.... So, I think we might have a good opportunity here, for this year.... We're just trying to wrap up some details.... And I've found a private location, besides my writing to California, where I can write about more confidential matters.... I'm trying to deal with any remaining issues....
This is the second part of my original Waterlily Story blog. Would like to tell more about myself and add some pictures. [For background information, please go to the first blog. People should also look through the list of Labels if they have concerns about a particular area. They can click on each subject separately, as they wish.] Thanks for visiting!

Young Police Officers...
At times, people have been made aware that young police officers are working with me on the police project.... An older lady--me--and some young officers.... And people wonder what we're up to and if anything good will ever come of it...?
In the first place, there have been young officers who were invited into the police project many years ago--10, 20, 30, 40 years ago, etc.--and they're not so young any more...but some are still involved.... Second, there are chiefs of police and fire chiefs who are involved, with some supervising authority; and the chiefs have to have a certain amount of experience before they're hired for their own jobs.... The very young aren't usually, if ever, hired as chiefs! So, I feel confident that it's not only the young who are working with me.... Third, it's possible the young officers can make mistakes...but we get through the best we can. And the young have a lot of energy and enthusiasm that the rest of us don't always have.... [Some young people have done some excellent work in the police project in the past, that I'm aware of...!]
As long as we don't wait too long to come to a conclusion, I'm confident that we have a great potential for success in this business, God willing.... People observing could gain a lot of benefit from finding out what's been going on.... Some people would have a personal interest in the issues and others would be interested for charitable purposes.
A person who I'm acquainted with told me about a recent movie called Woman in Gold and said I should see it.... And this person was trying to hide her sarcasm--not quite successfully.... Have looked up the film on the Internet and it's based on a true story about an older Jewish lady who worked with a young lawyer to get possession of a valuable painting which had been stolen from her family by the Nazis. The painting had been held by the Austrian government in a museum.... The museum had offered to compensate the woman--for some price?--if she'd give them the painting but she said no. Then, after a long battle, someone else wanted to have the painting for a New York gallery.... The woman accepted this offer and the Wikipedia write-up doesn't say too much else about it, regarding the film. But some real history about the case on the Internet said that the woman received $135 million for the painting!!! So, I guess she didn't come out too badly, after all!!!
Some people have looked down on me for bringing up a lot of movies in the police project.... [Have written about them in my blog, a certain amount.] And I've said that I should be compensated financially.... Maybe my acquaintance wanted to compare me to the above woman in the film...? And she thinks I'm fighting a losing battle...??? I haven't really made too big of a deal about money. Instead, I've been working on other issues, things that needed to be done.... And I certainly don't expect to receive as much as the lady in the film...but there'll likely be other parties who will get paid from the police project when it gets resolved....
When I see my acquaintance again, I'll ask her exactly what she was referring to about the film??? Why did she want me to see it??? And I don't know if she's really supporting my interests, unless I'm mistaken...? She seemed to be sarcastic, as I've said.... But there are certain police who have an inside joke that they say the opposite of what they mean, among themselves. And if the Woman in Gold movie was made to seem unsuccessful at the end, I'm sure it was meant to be an opposite story when people found out the actual circumstances in real life!? I mean, if they study the true story of the woman, they'll know she certainly had reason to be happy and proud of her accomplishment! And myself, it's not just that I'm looking for money but of course some pay would be reasonable, for my efforts over the years.... And I haven't made a big deal of asking my associates for money but they've brought it up, themselves, at times.... [But as they say in business, nothing is concrete until there's an offer in writing....]
So, I hope the police and firefighters won't continue to sit on this case for too long...!? I don't want it to get buried and forgotten...! But we've been making progress with our issues and I have reason to expect something will happen, sooner or later. One thing about the young officers is they have nothing invested in this business and they have their whole lives ahead of them.... They don't need to hurry! But I know, as I've stated above, that there are others involved; and I'm sure the young would also like to see success.... [And new, young officers will always continue to be added until we're done.... But young officers? No problem!]
