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