Explanation Of Life
One 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 next 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: "Monkey tricks for twenty years?
That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give
you back ten like the Dog did?"
And God agreed.
On the next 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.
Then on the next 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.
