The meaning of life-
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'll give you a life span of twenty years.'
The dog said: Thats a long time to be barking. How about only ten
years and I'll give you the other ten back.'
So God agreed.
Then 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 years
like the dog did?'
And God agreed.
Then 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 farmers family. For this, I'll
give you a life span of sixty years.
The cow said: 'Thats kinda a tough life you want me to live for
sixty years. How about only twenty and you can have forty back.
God agreed again.
Lastly God created Humans and said: 'Eat, sleep, play, marry,
and enjoy you life. For this I'll give you twenty
years.'
But the Human said 'Only twenty years? Could you possibly give
me my twenty, the forty from the cow, the ten the monkey gave back,
and the ten the dog gave back? So that makes eighty years to live,
Okay?
'Okay' Said God, 'You asked for it.'
So thats why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play, and
enjoy ourselves. For the next forty years we slave in the sun for
support to 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.
