God Explains Life (",)
On the first day,
God created the dog & said:
"Sit all day by the door of your house &
bark at anyone who comes in or walks past.
For this,I'll give you a life span of 20 years.'
The dog said: 'That's a long time to be barking.
How about only ten years & I'll give you back the other 10?
'So God agreed.
On the second day,
God created the monkey & said:
'Entertain people, do tricks, & make them laugh.
For this, I'll give you a 20 year life span.
'The monkey said: 'Monkey tricks for 20 years?
That's a pretty long time to perform.
How aboutI give you back 10 like the Dog did?'
And God agreed.
On the third day, God created the cow & said:
'You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and
suffer under the sun, have calves & give milk to support the farmer's family.
For this, I will give you a life span of 60 years.'
The cow said: 'That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for 60 years.
How about 20 &I'll give back the other 40?'
And God agreed again.
On the fourth day,
created man and said:
'Eat, sleep, play, marry & enjoy your life.
For this, I'll give you 20 years.'
But man said: 'Only 20?
Could you possibly give me my 20,
the 40 the cow gave back,
the 10 the monkey gave back,
and the 10 the dog gave back;
that makes eighty, okay?' ,
' said God, 'You asked for it.
' So that is why for our first 20 years
eat,sleep, play & enjoy ourselves.
For the next 40 years we slave in the sun to support our family.
For the next 10 years we do monkey tricks
to entertain the grandchildren.
for the last10 years we sit on the front porch & bark at every one
